The only things I can complain about are the stickers covering up and taking away from that beautiful weave. I love that the C5 is still getting love. Should try a full carbon fiber C6 Z06 next! Keep up the good work!

My old C5 Z was my favorite car to drive. I believe it is a future classic. Your project is incredible and must have been daunting. Are you reproducing body panels in carbon now that you've done the work for the molds?


And not to be picky, but that's not a z06

Yes since I already got the molds I'm able to make any body part, got the pricelist on my website. As far as the Z06, thats what I thought, doesn't really matter since its got a supercharger and NOS... :P
