Didn't get back into this thread it would appear...

Sockr - here is a picture of mine, followed by Henry's. I think the size difference is likely pretty negligible, but my set up could look a little bigger due to the grill.

So boring at home. I havent been on here for awhile now. Just Updating what I did so far. Lol

New tires 255/40/18

I trashed ingalls rear kit and replaced oem arms w/spc camber arm.

I found step shields and installed them w/authentic zkw lens.

Replaced pcv valve.

Removed hfpc and installed pcd.

I also got new shift boot, ebrake and arm rest leather.

Also installed ingalls stiffy.

And random pics. Lol

Those (Ingalls stiffy) engine torque damper looks interesting. I wonder If the damper
would help on the motor mounts, meaning less wear and tear.

Nice updates!

Are you sure the stiffy goes there? When I installed mine, as well as all the other ones I looked up before installing, it replaced the oem torque damper that is down by the rear motor mount

What made you want to change the pcv out? I am thinking about doing this also just for routine maintenance. Can you feel any difference?

Thanks! You're talking about xlr8 nrg damper that replace stock damper. This is ingalls stiffy which is addition. That's where it supposed to go. You can Google ingalls stiffy and you'll see it.
I was doing maintenance on my tl and I noticed oil started leaking out from valve cover bolt. So i checked pcv valve and it was clogged and replaced.

That red stitching looks really nice. Reminds me of the Si interior.

On the CorvetteForum, there is a guy who has a yellow C7 Stingray with a black interior. He bought a $2.50 pen with yellow ink and died his stitching. It looks really good.

Wow, that's bold. Not sure I love the color combo, but nice work anyway!

With that concave, I'm guessing 9.5 +22ish.

pretty crazy setup, but i like seeing something different!
the only thing that may look better is to reduce the clash of various colors by matching the calipers and the single spoke.

Yea, I was thinking the spoke could use a different color too, just not sure what I would go with.
