Default Most Extreme C4

I am curious if everyone would like to pitch in and post some pictures on C4s they have seen around the internet ( or in person) where someone took a very different approach to something. This could be a extravagant bodykit or amazing custom twin turbo powerplant setup or something as simple as a custom molded dash piece. I want to see things that shows people thinking outside of the box.

For instance, If you take a look at the following video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNLUpfVX0lk
Yes, this is a great motor transplant in itself but what I think was most innovative was perhaps the gauges they replaced the factory dash with.
Take a look and tell me what you think.

Also, you are free to post pictures of things like the Sledgehammer if you want because it IS a great car but its one we have all seen. And like I posted above, I am interested in seeing things that people setup when thinking outside of the box.

COPO would deserve a spot on this thread for not only his extremely badass hood but also the 355 tires he crammed into the back of his car that gives it such a mean look!

The throttle body plate on that blue 96 LT4 says supernatural 450 So im guessing its the 383 motor callaway put in those making 450HP but I thought supernatural all came with that cool body kit that looked like the sledghammer? was it available as just an engine package?

Nothing like a blown C4. Not a real flashy C4, but with that much horsepower, who cares.

That is awesome! I am not normally a fan of huge root style clowers like that either. (unless maybe its on an old charger) But to each their own! Definitely a lot of power!

I wish I knew how to post picture here. Someone should post one or two of COPOs set. both hood and rear tires. I dont know if many of you have seen it but he also has a GSXR fuel cap on his. A nice little touch that I havent seen before and i thought added a lot of character to the car.

I would also like to see anything custom. beltline delete, molded fender flares, lets see your headlight conversions, aftermarket stereos, A pillar gauges..... basically anything that is different from the way it rolled off the show room floor!

Saw this at the local cruise spot, "The Suds". It's the only one I've seen with big block motivation.

Copo's car is bad *** and I love the stance. I wish mine was that low. That red big turbo vette went mid 8's with the irs. There's a youtube video on it. It had a 101 mm turbo and was for sale for $30k a few years back.

I personally liked the big block with the f2 chain drive supercharger. It's been about 6 or 8 years since he's been on here though.

Low is not better. I lowered both of my Vettes and ended up raising the back an inch +/-.

My 2.3 cents

I already have enough trouble with speed bumps and driveways. That is what is making my mod considerations difficult. I want to adjust the body kit and perhaps incorporate some splitters, diffuser change and low profile spoiler before paint.
