My 19"s would look perfect on your car peter. Too bad I don't want P45's though. Nexx your hatch is completely dead? don't you only have a blitz spoiler on there (very small), or oem-like spoiler type? Mines will only drop in the colddd. Like the rest said, get some new struts from Jason.

Tommy, from that list it's a no brainer. Z06, we're talking about the newer model style correct? Cause I'm not much of a fan of the C5 Z06 (I think this is the model). Just looked it up, the C6 Z06 are the ones I love.

I do, but not with my wheels since I'm never going to get tires for em.



And you'll definitely know it's me when you see this fool waving.



Crappy pictures, sorry kind of big too.

I'm not stubborn, well maybe I am lol. I can't even afford tires at the moment even if they were 200$, Falkens 452s don't even carry 295/35/19s. Yes I could probably sell my wheels and save up a little money for tires, but its my daily, I also need to take off the tpms on those, and re-mount them as well. More money.

No that's not Joe's car, it's my brothers lol.

Dangit time to go to my last class and get over with it.

Put the new tires on a credit card until you sell your stockers. If you decide on the P45Rs I'll trade you.

Well I originally wanted to travel to Australia/New Zealand but they have winter in June.

Now I'm looking into island resorts around Costa Rica. Might look into Barbados, Bora Bora, Tahiti, whatever. Somewhere badass. Really just need to find more info.

The thread is way too long and it serves no real purpose anyway. It's kind of like the OT's monthly threads, which get deleted each month and a new one is started.

Just start with a flathead screw driver or anything flat at the top (closer to the third light) and outside (away from glass) of the panel. Once you get enough lift on the panels from the hatch, just move your hand across the entire lining of the panel and they will pop out on its own. Just pull on it if it doesn't come out; nothing will break.

Putting it back together is slightly tricky, but all you have to do is line it up and bang the panel into the hatch and it'll seat itself (you're bound to break 1 or 2 of the plastic things that hold the panel, though). I don't have a rattle, even though I've broke 2. If and when you break more than 1, just relocate the unbroken ones strategically to even the spacing between them.

The weight is only like 2.5lbs or something - very light. You're supposed to take that out when you install a spoiler (excluding the stock spoiler). Also, do the penny method while you're at it.

What it should resemble after you take off the panel and the dead weight.
