JohnnyT's C5 Z06 Build Thread

Speaking of spoilers, I love the ducktail style spoilers on C5's. They don't really seem to work as well on all colors though.

Looking good!

Thanks Josh! I know the rear needs something but there's just nothing out there I really like. The ONLY option I'm somewhat considering right now is a new rear bumper with a ducktail molded in, but it's over my budget right now and I'm not pushing to get it quite yet:



I did plasti-dip the lower rear fascia black last night. I'm going to add some gloss to it, so it's not done yet (and the exhaust tips are loose still), but here it is as of this morning:

Not scared of rain, but I usually spend about 2 hours to wash the car so if it's going to rain that's 4 hours down the drain (before and after). Suppose I could just skip the before. That, and my tires don't do so well on wet pavement. As of this morning there's only .04" rain fall projected so I'm sure I'll be there.

It looks alright on black. I'm just not a fan of the bolted on wrap-around style look to it. I much prefer the yellow one I posted above.
