Default Corvette c6 updated look? (Pics inside)

Hi

We all seen the widebody Z06/GS/ZR1, widebooty, but never a unique bodykit for the C6 with the stock fenders, I've always liked the c6 clean lines and really would like to see a bodykit compliment the rest of the vette plus looks like the C6 gen will be around for a while before any C7 hit the market(maybe around 2014), i have done some photoshop on some vettes to picture what i have in mind.

All supercars nowdays having the DRL Leds or had a faclift like the porsche so here is some photoshoped pics by me not that good but atleast show you what i have in mind


A new front bumper with Leds


Or leave the stock fog light while having a freshened up front


So what you guys think?? any vendors can make such a thing?

your first and second pictures are reversed, the checkers are on wrong side of front emblem....
Not too crazy about the LED lights, maybe look better integrated into the bottom front headlight casing.

Thanks!! everyone is heading to the Z06 look for that aggressive sporty look they want so why not having that on the C6 but keeping it clean and simple to flow with the rest of the body clean lines.

NICE EYE i dunno but i think the integrated LED lights into the bottom front headlight would look outta place and would cost alot to make and also for the customer who gonna buy the product unlike the front bumper easy install, cheap and give it a mean front nose

I'll be honest, I do like the looks of the LEDs, however, I also feel it looks too similiar to Porsche and Audi. Too bad Corvette didn't have them first!

Can any vendors make such a thing? Sure, but the question would be if its worth their effort and money to do so. Personally, I don't think there'd be enough demand. I give you an "A" for effort!

The checkers on the emblem....Hell, it's a right-hand drive car.

The front bumper does look great, a nice change that isn't radical.

i have the BMW "Angel Eyes" which I like a lot (not on the Vette) but on my X5. I think Audi did the LED's as a response BMW's Angel Eyes and agree they did miss the mark and do look a little gaudy.

IMO none of those designs improve on the original. They're not ugly just not appealing to me.
