I love it. It brings the stone age looking C6 lights up to todays standards and brings the whole front end up to a whole other level.


Ignore the haters. I would skip over all their bone stock base cookie cutter C6's at a car show without even batting an eye at them and gravitate right over to this Z06.

AMEN !!

Do the headlight openings need lots of filling? / Or is a 'perfect' cut enough?

Very happy with the lights. Much improvement in night driving visibility, especially the high beams. They align level and straight as well. With the HiD driving lights from the C6 it's like daytime at night. Ive got the bright setting DRLs on an ignition powered switch because at night they are crazy bright. They dim with parking/headlights like the C7 does but I have the option to turn them on bright at night or have them off during the day (why would I do that!?!)

Try to post some videos this weekend

Looks amazing, I have done the rear wide-body and have been trying to make up my mind on what front to go with, but you have made my decision easy. Have you made up your mind about producing a kit or not? If you are, around when do you think it would be available?

That really turned out beautifully.
Any chance you'll do something similar with the rear quarter vents? I haven't really seen anything creative or different with C6 rear quarters and maybe dropping that air vent down some like the C7 could be cool....
Either way, killer job. I love it.

Quick video. Low resolution I guess from mobile upload.... glad I'm repainting the car after molding because the color on the hood and doors is not perfectly matched probably from age and sun.

I would go the other way. Those headlights are one thing I do not like about the C7.
