So nice to see such a similar build to mine! Also 08 jsb All led lights inside and out Aftermarket radio Added front and rear camera for cheap Color matched spoiler Gtr carbide c8 style headlights Headers, x pipe, exhaust. No cam I want morimoto rear lights but in due time, same for rear wide quarters Imo dont paint a jetstream blue. Such a stunning color for the c6. Thats what white, black and silvers cars are for 😝

Looks good Vette Lights was out of the morimoto smoked so I went with Infirai which look really good on my black c6. I’ve done all of the exact same mods, bk up cam, bt head unit etc. I also replaced all of the interior bulbs with leds which are much better than the yellowish halogen bulbs. Good stuff man, car look great!

When you mentioned exhaust, I just bought one without the pipe tips and it growls so loud, I want to know will it still sound like that if I installed tips onto my exhaust? I can’t deny it sounds so good but I’m like you, I don’t care for the whole time I’m riding and I feel like it burns more gas that way-what’s up tell me something slick so I can slide?

@@davidr6865the quarter panels with painting and blending will not be cheap, easily in the thousands. I am seeing GS models in the low 30s and falling so spending so much to upgrade a base model to pretty much a GS doesn’t make much sense over just buying one without the hassle. All the mods he goes into are gonna make this a 40-50K build. I would rather spend a bit more than that and have a ZR1.

Because Grand Sports look kinda stupid with those fake fish gills in the front, and Z06 has a fixed roof, so you lose Targa AND costs 50% to 100% more than base. Same issue with the ZR1.

Woah there, cowboy. I'm gonna agree, & disagree with some of your "cheap first mods," vigorously, & I'll explain why (& where we agree, of course we're right; where we disagree, of course I'm right). What I think you got right: exhaust, taillights, rear spoiler. Calling these mod's "cheap" is subjective, but clearly something like LED side marker lamps is at a different level, financially, than an exhaust or sound-system, & I wouldn't necessarily classify exhaust or stereo as "cheap." If you've got a base coupe, the OEM exhaust sounds anemic and doesn't do the car justice. That said, most aftermarket exhausts are going to be near or over $1000. Stock taillights are okay, but uninspiring. I put on something similar to the Morimotos, and the effect is stunning. Adding a spoiler to the car not only improves the car's looks (I went with body color rear spoiler), but also doubles your horsepower and makes the car go *much* faster. What you got wrong (big time): front spoiler, 'upgraded" audio system with Bluetooth, LED side markers, gear shifter. Again, NOT CHEAP is an upgraded sound system. Replacing the stock sound system also brings all sorts of malfunction to the car, especially if you have the 3LT package. With aftermarket sound system, you'll incur not only LOTS of expense, but your door chimes will stop working, you'll lose navigation integration with your HUD, you'll lose voice commands and voice response, and you'll be lucky if you don't throw lots of codes, and lucky if the new sound system works at all. I added Bluetooth capability to my car's OEM stereo by adding a Bluetooth to XM interface module. It is comparatively cheap and easy to add. I use XM as source on the factory stereo, and BAM! Now I'm Bluetooth streaming from my phone. Changing the stereo is a BIG and EXPENSIVE deal, and you'll lose functionality. LED side markers look okay, if you're into spending money to make your car look boring. Considering the chance of having your entire electrical system malfunction because the car's brain will now detect an impudence mismatch. When I installed my LED taillights, my electrical "broke." The aftermarket manufacturer provided 4 Ohm. This manufacturer not only provided a part that didn't work as intended, they were zero help diagnosing and fixing the problem. After doing some research, I switched the 4 ohm resistors for 6 ohm and now the car's ECU is happy and everything works as it should. Don't risk the hassle for lame-looking blacked out side markets. The stock OEM front of the car looks great. These aftermarket chin spoilers look stupid, and make it look like you're a ricer fan-boi. As a byproduct, you'll also immediately lose 15 IQ points, but people you meet will think you've lost 30 points. Short-throw shifter: not needed. Stock throw is plenty short. What you missed: interior lighting & a pedal commander. CLEARLY you don't "get it," otherwise you'd have done these. The OEM incandescent lamps make it feel like you're sitting in a dark crypt and are just pathetic. I replaced map & cargo space lamps with BRIGHT WHITE LED. I replaced foot-well courtesy lamps with bright blue LED (NOT ice blue). This lighting upgrade is ACTUALLY CHEAP, not pretend cheap, like exhaust or sound system, and look AMAZING. Perfect, actually. CAGS skip shift bypass for cars with 6MT. ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL. Costs $15-$20, worth much more. Don't get the trick-fuse CAGS skip shift bypass.Those throw codes. Get the kind that installs right next to the transmission. Also triples the value of the car, immunizes you from demon-possession, & cures halitosis. Pedal commander. I paid ~ $200 for a Soler Performance throttle control. Get it, install it, use it. Whatever you think of this concept, you will love this serious upgrade. Don't think, do. Thanks for the video, & welcome to the family.
