I've done that to both of my C6s (2008 AW coupe & 2009 CRM vert); it's a big improvement IMHO!!

Enjoy,

Thinking about doing the rears, the the boss thinks the red goes with the interior and the calipers !! .

Time will tell! Another Rainy day in the garage and the rears may go too!!!

Sounds like something my wife would say

I think you can go either way with it. Looks good as is. The NRB with red looks good too!

Great color combination, and I really like the red interior (and calipers) and the NRB together. I can see both sides of this discussion, but I really do like the mod to the front side markers.

Man, that car looks great with that color combination. What do you think about going with a two tone shift boot/****

One of the best mods I've done, I think. I would do the rears too if I was you.
