Nice...! Bet you're enjoying that

Awesome. Car has noticeably less body roll, dropped about 3/4”, I had some wheel gap after putting on 1LE size wheels/tires so it also looks better.

I do feel bumps a little more which I expected, but it’s really not much different then stock. It’s the only kit with matched shocks that I’m aware of (short of coil overs), I’m pleased with it. Caught it on GM 25% off accessories sale late last year.

Not the best picture, but finally got down to installing my C7 Carbon side skirts. They look good, fitment is 99%, workmanship I'd say 85-90%.

They look nice. Do they interfere with getting in or out? In other words will my wife step on them LOL?

Thanks

Well, the pic shows them bigger (wider) than they actually are, but she will step on them the first 2-3 times unless you warn her. The previous "natural" position for my feet when getting out of the car is about half an inch "into" the skirt, so there is a bit of adjustment needed. Getting in is not an issue.

The attachment is with 18 self-tapping screws or rivets per side, so these won't move even if accidentally kicked or lightly stepped on. I'll ask my detailer about PPF next week (along with a few minor problem spots I want them to fix up), they just closed shop when I drove by earlier today.

Here are a few more pictures to help you judge if they're something you would want considering their width. Not bad at all IMO, they improve rock chip protection for the rocker panels, and look good as well, of course.

Installed a Rotofab CAI with the dry element, fit like a champ. I am hoping it to be a good compliment for my Mamo V2 PTB and Soler throttle controller.

chiefmg · 04-26-2021, 02:56 PM

Annual oil/filter change. Also changed the rear diff fluid (used the AC Delco recommended fluid).

BLACK21SS · 04-26-2021, 04:52 PM

Took off the run flats a month ago and went with AS tires. So I needed a spare and went with the performancespare.com spare.

Put together a trunk kit with a scissor jack, Milwaukee 18v impact, long handled 1/2" socket wrench, long and short 22mm sockets, 12v inflator and plug patch kit.

how are the r300 rotors?

Finally added the ZL1 Add-Ons Jack Pads (red) that have been sitting on my workbench for months... Going to lift the car for the first time with them installed tomorrow using my QuickJack BL-5000SLX with the Extensions... I had to put the pads at the aft limit of the forward front opening and near the aft limit of the rear opening, they are 63.5" on center which should just work perfectly with the 66" QuickJack extensions... Makes me nervous leaving them on the car but I used blue Loc-Tite and cranked them down very tight, they shouldn't be going anywhere...

I'll try to remember to take pictures tomorrow...

Don't worry, they will stay put. Mine have been on since Nov 2018 and never moved the slighest bit.

Hope you didn't strip the hex allen screws, because rocks and road debris will eventually chip them enough for you to consider a new set.

Interested in seeing the pics as I have these on mine but I haven't had the need to use my quick jack for anything lately. No need to be nervous once they're on they stay put.
