Wheels are ordered (Decided on silver not gun metal)
Ordered the group buy shark fin antenna and a center console "86" plaque. Will be ordering tires shortly. *edit* ordered 255/35-18 Continental ExtremeContact DW today After seeing this... ![]() I've decided I'm going to do Header+full exhaust and a tune. Not go turbo. I'd rather save for another Corvette. Think car will end up bring sold late 2013/early 2014 as a prepped daily for track use. Probably with 3 sets of pads (stock, street, track) and 3 sets of wheels and tires (Golf wheels/snow tires, 18x9 ESMs/Conti DW, and 17x9 RPF1s/RS-3s). Likely making over 200whp on E85 ![]() *edit* - maybe not... I called Drift Office the morning and put a deposit on the AVO kit

Updated first post with planned (and installed/existing/shipped) mods as well as updates.
Stay tuned for the next 30 days. Should be wild.

Our cars are real similar, different brands on some stuff but a lot of the same parts installed and planned too. I haven't decided on FI yet and the esm's were my other wheel choice also. Glad you got the silver I saw the gunmetal on white and didn't really like it. Good choice on the Strano bar, I'll put my planned list up in my thread so you can compare.

Finally some parts came in the mail and my tires were mounted and balanced successfully (after the tire shop ripped a tire and broke a TPMS sensor - which they replaced both at no charge)...
AP front/over pipe - Invidia Q300 exhaust - and a peek at the wheels and tires. (camera phone pic)

I can't wait to have springs on, this is full on 4x4 mode but it gives you and idea of the wheels/tint/tails.
