WIDE BODY IS PAINTED!

[@DHenry-cs8up]

Looks good Chris. You really took your time and did it the right way.

[@mycorvettelife]

Thanks

[@keithlane4343]

Painted wide body quarters came out awesome. Your Vette is looking great.

[@mycorvettelife]

Thanks

[@josephstarling3020]

Your corvette looks awesome love the way the wider quarters look great 👍 👌 😀

[@tboscontroller8897]

Fill in that tire gap with 1.5” lowering coil over suspension.

[@SteveAZ711]

Looks Great! That Vette sure has come a long way. Nice drive home too.

Looks really good chris, classic gold did a great job the paint match!

[@mycorvettelife]

Thanks

[@petercarey6883]

It looks great Chris. You certainly can't complain about the turn around time or the price. Save the Wave.

[@mycorvettelife]

Thanks

[@BlackenedBullet]

Looks sick! Wide-bodies always look awesome. Fresh paint is so satisfying.

[@markdupre4854]

Looks great and the price seems pretty fair as well!!, I would suggest lowering it about an inch. I lowered mine on the stock bolts and it really changed the look of the car.

[@mycorvettelife]

Thanks

[@zorazr192]

After watching your videos with your C5 makes me miss my ZO6 even more

[@mycorvettelife]

Thanks

[@jrstormont]

That looks REALLY good!! Makes me wanna do something similar with mine.

[@andytaylor5712]

Fits really well??? Right qtr looks wavy along the upper edge of trunk when hatch is up Plus the gap between the rocker and right qtr looks wide and not in line with edge of rocker. Did the paint them on the car or off???

[@Glide1992]

If you watched all the videos you would know they took them off to paint.

[@jaybogreenbo2441]

Um...Andy....maybe you just look away and worry about Barney and Opie! 😂

[@lwelk273]

Looks like it come together - will also improve once the rear spoiler is in place. Very nice. Talk soon at the weekend show! Just got done cleaning up my C7's for the drive. Take care and best to the family! Soapbox Detailing - AZ.

[@smrio87]

Corvette creations great video looks amazing man !

[@Brittlespeed]

Do you have to run the spacers? Seems like the wheels still stick out a little further then they should. Otherwise, looks great!

[@mycorvettelife]

Yes. In fact the wheels could still come out another 1/4”.

[@keithcooper9087]

Looks nice! Good paint job and a timely fashion! I would never do business with a shop that needs the car for 2 months. Not happening. You didnt show the headlight covers that you said they were going to paint as well. Keith (SC)

[@mycorvettelife]

Thanks

[@vinniecorleone62]

Congrats, it looks great, nice clean subtle changes! Just had a new front facia, spoiler & windshield installed on my new Challenger after a freeway rock & debris damage insurance claim, 10 days total to install all OEM parts & repaint most of car, almost $7000 in repairs, no one should have to wait months with proper research.

Many more videos to come.

[@stevesnvegas9040]

Looks nice! How well do you think they blended the paint color?

[@mycorvettelife]

As good as can be expected. You can’t tell the difference at all in the sun. I see very small difference in photos more so that in person for some reason.

[@tokyodragonmasterlee409]

It looks great I like the rocker panels to, awesome 😋

[@mycorvettelife]

Thanks

[@mannyr.2756]

It looks great but I still think that that Nassau blue C5 Corvette next to your white one would look fantastic think of it his and hers and yes it's an automatic so it will be driver-friendly for your wife I guarantee you you won't be disappointed I would love to see the Nassau blue C5 in your Channel.

[@mycorvettelife]

[@kevinmartin6480]

[@mycorvettelife]

Thanks

[@MrTbonerocks80s]

Now you gotta get the alignment done and stand the back tires up to get some traction. I run my Z06 0 degrees camber. still corners great. Hooks up great at the track. Sometimes on the C5 you have to shift the rear cradle in the right direction to get the camber at 0 on both sides.

[@OMEGATECH]

Awesome!! Looking sharp!!

[@mycorvettelife]

Thanks

[@bouldernelsonbigfoot]

Looks great. What size spacers did u use on rear wheels?

[@mycorvettelife]

1” temporarily until I got new wheels.

[@youngestson6537]

The cover was cracked so they suggested getting a new cover before paint.

Damn man!!! That thing is looking sweet!!! I still think you should add some functional Z06 side scoops to those panels though, I think that is what is missing and they are dirt cheap all over EBay.

Nope. It was cracked too bad. I need a new cover before I paint it.

[@PNW_Car_Mods]

Chris, are you happy with the wheel fitment? Seemed they used to stick out a bit with the stock fenders and now with the widebody fenders and spacers it's like they are right back to sticking out just a smidge? I'm knit picking of course. I think the project turned out fantastic. My tires stick out a smidge with factory 01 Z wheels and it drives me a bit batty.

Still using the originals.

[@qua7771]

@@mycorvettelife They are usually rusted beyond restoration due to the water run off area. I can't seem to find OEM replacements. I remember you from the forum. You and your car have come a long way since the original purchase. I have the same C6Z wheels and have upgraded the brakes as well. My black 2002 is in the shop for collision repair. I purchased all four wide body fenders, the rears are like yours. I'm seriously considering a custom front bumper but I'm seeing a lot of people having fitment issues with them. Keep up the enthusiasm.

Personally I would have had the bumper and fenders painted and cleared individually. I don’t like spraying clear coat over body lines while bolted together, at $1300 bucks I would expect that’s what they did since It looks good in the video.

As I have said multiple times over several videos....they took the panels off to prep and paint.
