Default Today was "Perfect" for adding a few Mods (PICS)

The weather couldn't have been more perfect here today for working on the car. (Southern Oregon) Most would probably say it was better for cruising, but, I'll have plenty of time for that here real soon. I decided to get out there and add my new "Rocker Savers", "Clear Corners", and "Z06 Foglight Screens".

Again, my camera sucks so some of the pictures aren't that good.





As you can see, I was definitely in need of the Rocker Savers.






And these look so much better than the stock ones!









And last but not least, the Z06 Screens.




What a difference some new turn signals and Z06 screens can make!
(And yes my license cover is flat black, I just haven't got it painted yet)

Looks great, nice improvement on an already slick C5. Really like the looks of the screens and turn signals.

Ok, enough schmoozing. Where did you get the "Clear Corners" turn signals and the screens from?

Believe it or not I got them both off Ebay. The turn signals were like $49 + $15 S&H, and the screens were something like $39 + $12 S&H. I got them a while ago but was waiting till the weather warmed up. I know you can still find them for around the same price if you look hard enough.

Default looking good

That is nice.
Now go out and get some silverstar ambers for the corners. If you haven't seen them you're in for a treat. They're blue until you light them then a very bright amber. About $19 a pair I think at WallyWorld.

Arch, good looking mods...I did 2 of them last year and now need to get me some frame rails. BTW, where did you get your front jack stands? I like the idea of a flat bottom as opposed to the tri-pod ones I have now

Great improvment to the front end. Looks really good -- I may do the clear corners and Z06 screens myself.
