Very cool Steven! Your car looks fantastic as always. How much longer until the new goodies are installed?

Now, who thought it would be a good idea to paint a GTR the color of Velveeta?!?!

Tyler, the lower rear fascia (in Carbon Fiber) is scheduled to arrive tomorrow! I'm keeping my fingers crossed.....

I've also got a throttle body cover (in Hydro Carbon Fiber) coming tomorrow and a hood vent (in Carbon Fiber) coming at the end of the month....that's the one you suggested I get!






By the way, the GT-R is wrapped!

Saw my first C7 up close today at the golf course. All black and seemed to have the same package as yours with the full width lip spoiler and such. I drooled over it for at least 10 minutes.

Beautiful car. I still have yet to see one in person. And I probably won't for a while up here.

I like the C7 but I have been wondering why GM made it so the wheels have to have such a high offset. I wish they had a little concavity to them. I'm sure a wider footprint is better for stability but I'm not really a fan of +50 offset wheels.

That has nothing to do with Steven's car though. It's really nicely done. Any thought to replacing the chrome on those wheels?

I love this, not only for the Carbon Fiber (obviously), but what sold me on this was the racing diffuser fins. It truly gives the car an entire new look. It's much more aggressive, but still classy looking.

^ there's enough CF on your car so it wouldn't look out of place.
