Here is some shots of the lower stance and painted engine covers. I chose the 2013 centennial Corvette color Carbon Flash Metallic code 58u/GAR. Hope you like it.

My opinion? Every vehicle looks better lower than stock! Enjoy it!

I'll second that one.

What brand lowering components did you use?
Amount of drop?

I bought the upper control arms and strut mount kit by DJM from NorcalSS from the tbssowners.com site. Then I just lowered the rear by adjusting the bags until it was almost level. I think I am going to get the adjustable from struts and rear shocks from Belltech.

Thanks for all the compliments guys!

How's the economy on one of these? Just curious... and I know that's not why you buy one.

If I keep my foot out of it I can usually get around 16/17 overall. But I only drive it church and work on occasion. It's has the stock drivetrain with no mods other that a catch can. I will putting on an LS1 fan or SPAL fans, intake and a tune after the holidays. That should improve the fuel mileage a little.
