More aerodynamic than what exactly? I never claimed it was superior to base with stock tires unless you can prove me wrong. This was done to IMPROVE aerodynamics to accommodate the size of tires used on my car. Ask someone who knows the subject, unlike yourself.

Must suck to be senile. These are YOUR words.

"Nope, this is a tribute to aerodynamics and functionality"

But then again, If I just took a massive crap on the beautiful lines of a Corvette with some ridiculous Fast & Furious ground effects, I'd jump on a forum and get all pissy when people rip my horrid mistake of a car too.

LOL, how can you be so ignorant? Honestly son, you do not even understand what you quote. Each to their own, I can care less what your car looks like, stop whining about mine-unless you buy it for me. Not any different than those ignorant comments about illegality of my tail lights. Now, shoosh!!!

Careful. He may ask you to raise your hand and stand at attention when you ask your next question.

While my ideal Corvette doesn't match what you have done, I do like your effort and the finished project, with the exception of the tail light treatment.

It's a good thing that we can all have our own ideas for what we want in our cars. It would be boring if all of our cars were the exact same thing.

Good job.

Oh yes, I would be very interested in seeing what your tail lights look like during the day time with the brakes applied.


If you would care to share.

Diversity is what makes world go around. Open mind seems to be a rare commodity these days.

What is with those ridiculous lights? Worst ever. But as long as you like it........yada, yada, yada...............
