Default Friend's car in Europe...

Anyone know if these mods are available in the US?



Interesting rear window molding...


By the time he took it to the autoshow it had Z06 fenders....

Rims are a pain to clean...

He now also has the Lambo style lift doors.

They are mocking the Corvette & all it's owners. Surprised they didn't put a prancing horse on the grill.

looks like its almost a photoshop to look like a ferrari especially that first pic but, there is a company that has a rear bumper similar to that one called Geiger. i honestly dont like the way it looks just my opinion though.

i don't understand why they keep trying to make the Corvette look like Ferrari!!
Ferrari is a great car and it is a better car than Corvette, but the Vette is still a great car and doesn't need to look like any other car to be a great car. let's just keep the vette looking like a Vette, not like a Ferrari or Zonda

Well said...
Except for the "better than Corvette" part... but I get your point.

Take two deep breaths and step away from the computer.

Those body kits are not Corvette friendly!

Looks interesting but takes away too much of the typical Corvette look. If you want a Ferrari buy one.

I see this pattern in other cars/trucks. I have seen some GMC trucks with the front end(grill,lights) of a Range Rover. I have seen other people trying to make a Chrysler 300c into a Bentley.

A Z06 is a Z06 and it has it unique style and is recognized worldwide. Someone trying to make a Z06 look like a Ferrari F430 clone shows a lot about the owner, mostlikely an incapable finacially Z06 owner trying to fit a shoe on his foot but wouldn't fit.

If you are a big baller you would have a real Enzo, 599 or F430 Scuderia but if you have a C6 and trying to make your C6 a Ferrari then you are a Wannabe.
