Right on. I didn't know if you were keeping it or not, based on the new chin spoiler you got. If you weren't going to keep it, I was going to see if I could buy it off you.
Car is going to look awesome when it's finished.

the side skirts and front lip didnt come with any pre drilled holes or anything.
going to have to figure it out as i go but i liked the looks of this lip on the TS.
SouthernCarParts.com is the Cheapest place i found any TS piece at be it Front, rear, or the hood.
He's a cool guy too.. i bought my rear bumper from him but paid full N00B retail for the front a few years ago..

I think if you handed me a bone stock C5 and $40,000 to mod it, that it would still take me about six months to a year to finish it.. and the sad part is that its not my fault.. Waiting a month for Part A to bolt up to Part B that is still 2 more weeks out is just a drag.

Are you using spacers on the GS wheels to fit flush with the TPE rear fenders? Ever think of having the car wrapped instead of paint? BTW, nice project.

I do like the idea of playing with a vinyl scheme. i love the look of that foreign Vette that says "INSANE" or something like that down the side. it was the first C5 i saw satin black then satin orange.. hes got a really cool setup now with two tone greys and orange.

I don't suppose you'll ever be putting that back to stock to trade it in, huh?

I cant really say because im down to all aftermarket parts. The fenders are TPE and the nose is a Starcraft Tigershark and i bought the ebay halo headlights. I did see a recent thread where it looked like somebody was putting the Carbon Creations guy on blast because they didnt like how the fit looked when the body shop was done. He tried to explain to them that it takes fitment and alignment to get it perfect and i couldnt agree more..
The only downfall to the hood i have found is i read you aren't supposed to use the factory hood struts and the hood wont hold it self up.

So i started in on the Breathless Performance vents. they were far from perfect but this is how we repaired the flaw from the mold where the vent meets the duct.
CarvethC5 is going to help me mold them in later this week..
I also got my Corsa Touring cat back this Friday and got them cleaned up tonight.
I think im going to buy new Corsa tips and cut these off to just run 2 tips. I will also be adding cut outs so i will have the nice tone with quiet exhaust and the loud nasty at the flip of a switch..
And here is one of my many mountains of car parts waiting to get on the car..
