How the hell do you still have the dealer plate frame on?!

I'm trying to choose a clever license plate frame, any links or ideas? My black and yellow CA plate ("LOLNEXT") should be here by the end of March at the latest.

Dang that was a huge ass wing that C6. Hopefully it's got the muscle to backup those looks. It'll be interesting to see what that 5.0 had under the hood though...never know with car enthusiasts what may lurk under that hood.
If you're in cali probably hard to find unique plates that's not already taken. Since I just came from Denver and seeing your stang is blue...how about BLUCIFER?
(I assume any and all variations of stang/5.0/five/oh/etc. probably taken arleady...(

That's a good one but Cali plates are limited to 7 characters only and I already ordered mine! Here -

I'm fighting the itch to purchase a supercharger kit on sale from one of the Mustang6Gen vendors so I'm looking into cat-backs instead.. Haha
I'm also thinking about making an IG, anybody got any clever username ideas? I was thinking "SD_GT".

Thanks, man! And unfortunately, no. They sounded nothing like I had hoped they would. ![Why Me](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/whyme.gif)
All the time! I made sure there was some room for me to jolt out of the way if needed but everyone kept it under control.![Thumbs Up](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
You know, I planned on leaving in a classy fashion as well but after some yells from on-lookers I had to do a little burn-out before going on my way.
That yellow C6Z would tear that 5.0 a new one! They were all buddies though. I'm sure the Z06 could've left the 5.0 in the dust in the blink of an eye if it really wanted to.. Or if their buddy in the Challenger ahead of them would just get out of the way.![Roll Eyes](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)

I must have missed that 315's post....what width rear rim do you have? I can see the tire bulge a bit like the rim is a tad too narrow for it, but it looks good. How's it driving and how's the traction?
That rear spoiler on the C6 is hideous IMO, but any spoiler that style specifically made for the C6 is 100% functional. They are also crazy expensive like most stuff made for the Corvette, like 2K+

Yep! Finally moved up to 315's but with an el-cheapo, no-name tire so traction is still a petty joke. The rear wheels are 20x10.5 and I was told by the David at Steeda AutoSports that the recommended tire sizes were 275/35/20 front and 315/35/20 in the rear. Right now, the stance is not as symmetrical as I'd like it to be with these tiny 255's in the front.
I'll move up to 275's when they wear out and probably drop my rears down to a 305. Butttt, I'm looking into selling these wheels and switching up the look anyways. I want something light weight as I'm sure that these 20's are heavier than my stock 18's! I was actually thinking of RPF-1's! Haha
That rear spoiler is fine by me because LS7's are simply sex. He could draw a penis on the sides of the car and I'd still drive it with a huge smile on my face. :ghey:

I'm thinking some 18", maybe even 19" light-weight squared Enkei's might be the route I go next for wheels.. Just can't figure out what design would look good with the the lines of this car.

I was looking into NT05R's and possibly some Michelin PSS. Gotta figure out the camber situation first and whether or not I'll be keeping the current set-up!
Saw a beautiful red C6 today. We exchanged a few words at a stop light, nice guy with an awesome car.

The only thing stopping me from getting years of enjoyment out of it would be myself though. I get tired of my toys real fast! Boost might cure that.

An LS3 with a lower monthly payment doesn't sound too bad but I fall in love with my car every time I see it.

that's the problem with power...it's never enough. I bet I'd drive your car and think it's the fastest thing I've ever driven...for you, you're probably redlining, powershifting and plucking your eyebrows while doing you're make up bored AF...

Yeah I know what you mean, it's just a different type of speed. I bet the only reason I'm even considering this is because it's winter and I haven't ridden in 4 months.
