Looks good, the front looks a little higher (more gap) then the rear though.

I love a lowered vette

Is it lowered on the stock bolts, aftermarket bolts or coilovers?

It is lowered on the stock bolts, but cut 2 out of the 3 bushings off. I took everyone's advice and lowered the front down just now and you guys were right!! Pics soon to follow, but will be in the garage as it is pouring outside now..

Hurry let's see pics! after the rain that is...

Also make sure you have the car aligned after you lowered it if not the tires will get eaten up on the inside, I learned that many years ago after lowering my car and not aligning it right away.
