I hadn't had the car out for a month or so. I couldn't help myself.

Also did some adjustments to the exhaust and pulled the tips up a bit tighter.

Thats looking tight but you still need to black out the window chrome trim and get it tinted... The springs u reused the stock shocks I guess looking at pics? How is the ride compared to b4?

It's a work in progress and plan to tint this spring/summer.

The original shocks were reused. Ran out of time today so I haven't driven it yet.

The VMR V710s showed up today. Well 1/2 of them. FedEx left the other two back in California.

They are 20x9+35 and 20x10+45 in hyper silver. The fronts will clear the 6 pot CTS-V brembo's too.

Thinking about powder coating gloss black but I'm on the fence.
