Yeah, I really like this look too, although sleepy eye or regular head lights would make no difference to me. Headlights are closed most of the time anyway. These kits often come with the ZR1 front fenders and I really like the side vent treatment on those.
This may be a dumb question (won't be my first) but what happens if you eliminate the insulating pad? I've seen some cars at shows that seem to have replaced it with polished stainless steel panels. Would heat affect the hood somehow?
I have an '04 and much prefer its looks vs. an '05. I like the concealed headlights and smoother lines of a C5. Certain models of C6 look great in the right color, such as a black Grand Sport, but overall the C5 looks better than a base C6.
Does the hot weather there kill batteries quicker than up here in Northern Ohio (COLD winters)? I ask because I paid $$ for an AC Delco battery in 2011; it finally died spring of 2019. I trickle charged it every winter for about 5 months, then back on the road. Anyway, no particular reason...
Seats are gray Sport seats, from my 2004 base Coupe. I replaced these with Corbeau aftermarket seats. My car had 36,000 miles when I took these out this past winter. Power motors, lumbar support motors all were in good working condition when I took them out. Both seats have power. Driver's seat...
Having finally decided to keep my '04 Coupe, I'm looking to make some changes, including a set of stripes on the center of the car. Looking for an installer in the Cleveland/Akron Ohio area. Any suggestions?
Hmmm. Looking at it, I'd say the owner must be a pretty dangerous guy. I wouldn't mess with him. Or her. Or it. Hasn't Mattel Toys sued over the use of the Hot Wheels logo?
Since this thread has spanned several years I've elected not to read the entire umpteen pages, so please forgive me if this has already been mentioned... Any color of caliper cover is for sissy's. Real men don't use calipers at all. Just take 'em off and use 'em for paper weights.
Bought my '04 coupe in 2009 from a Saturn dealer where it had been traded in on a Saturn Sky! Hard to believe! Paid $24,000, it had no options, with 16,243 miles.
Although I don't have a spare $52K laying around, I think this is a real bargain considering the technology in this car. As has been the history with the 'Vette, I can't think of another car out there with the ability of the Corvette at this price.
I don't have an opinion on the wheels or sizing, but I can say the Michelin ZP's were a fantastic improvement over the original, stock Goodyears that were on my 04 Coupe. Noise was much less, ride was better and they're still runflats. I have the summer tires and they are very sticky. Since...
6', 195, 58 years old. Yup, this is the way to get into a C5. It may look like grandpa getting in, but once inside, who cares? It's a blast at any age!
Try a four wheel alignment. If the pulsing comes up through the seat it's in the rear of the car as well as the front. Warped rotors would only be felt when braking.
