Does this affect your performance?...... And how much weight does this add to your car.

Looking at it logically, extra fiberglass to cover the girth of the fenders and the slightly wider plastic liners probably account for no more than maybe a couple dozen pounds. The wheels, while deeper offset, probably aren't substantially (if at all) wider than than they were before, so no more there. Overall, I'd guess the weight variation between now and before is probably no greater than that between average drivers' body types.

The drag coefficient has probably increased by a small measure, but I doubt it'll be felt on-track. Perhaps it would shave a MPH or two in mile-racing, but I don't think that's a concern.

It looks bad@ss, and I think that was the plan.

Is that the V-LEDs rear back up license plate frame?

Andy- Nice meeting up with you and the rest of the car nuts at Santana Row! Hope you don't mind me posting some pix

You have to see this car in person to really appreciate it! Pix do NOT do it justice!

Here's my wide booty C6 next to Andy's Extreme ZR8
