Default Callaway C6 Z51 widebody conversion is done

Its finally done. Last year I did the rear widebody using Carvaggio panels. This year with the help of mcandrew67 for giving me lots of pointers, Don at SS-vettes for the front panels, bumper and side skirts, Stuarts for installation and paint and Chris, clearbraguy1@verizon.net for the clearbra.

2009 C6 Z51 Covertiable with LS3
Callaway 580 supercharger package
Carvaggio rear panels
SS-vettes front bumper, panesl and side skirts
CCW 19x10 fronts 275's
CCW 20x13 rears 345's












Now that the warranty is almost over (27,000 miles) its back to performance mods.

What more can I say but that is one beautiful ride!! The wheels, hood, everything looks perfect. I wanted so badly to convince my wife to let Callaway convert our new 2011 but she doesn't like the hood and said it would not go with our CRM paint! I kind of agree, but on the black it makes the whole car just pop! Congrats and enjoy the ride!
