    C7's have the nicest rear ends of any car out there. Oh yeah, much more aggressive looking now. When I was in the Ventura Corvette Club in 1975 -78 I noticed that every time anyone parked their car, they always stopped and turned back to look at it from a distance. It's the same today. Plus Corvettes make the best used car value of any car because us owners baby them. I just installed GM brake pads and rotors on my C6 (Z51) and yes, they were expensive. But only the best will do...because we're so weird. :)

    It's really good you showed the back of your car because if I was there I would never ever see it I would struggle to even see the front especially because it would be that far away🤣🤣🤣🤣😘😘

    Looks pretty slick! That thing will stick like glue on the track ... or the expressway on-ramp, but you didn't hear that from me ...😏😁
    GM infuriates me! I don't know what those cost (I'd imagine they're not cheap, since #1, Corvette, and #2, GM), but you'd think they'd have some damn quality control there! Just packing them in foam that had a little "stick" to it would've prevented scuffing in transit. As far as the holes go ... all I can say is, "wow", there - fantastic job, GM, as usual!! I'd expect that from a Dorman product, not an OE accessory! Sadly, I think that company has runs its course ... 😟
    She's a beauty, Glen! Thanks for sharing. 👍🍻

    I just did this same mod last night. You can put a little heat on the old spoiler wing to get it started before you start in on the prying process. Mine had the same scuffing on the wings.

      Ozzstar's Cars it really does look awesome. Your car and mine are very very similar. Same color, same fender stripes, I replaced the Brembo’s with the hawk pads like you did. The only difference is that I went with a white vinyl stripe down the middle. I used the same kit that GM that you could order from the factory. Really makes the Admiral blue pop. I’ll post a pic to your facebook post. I’m willing to bet some of your viewers would be interested in seeing the install process for that too.

    Getting that thing off of the car reminded me a lot of trying to get phones or tablets apart to replace the battery. Remember when we had screwdrivers and wrenches? Oh well at least the tape doesn't get rusty I guess.

    I run stage 3 all the time. I can actually feel the down force around 120+ , really noticeable after 150, however top speed is restricted. Fuel mileage is unchanged, 21 mpg at 78 mph

      Ozzstar's Cars I’ve been reading a lot about it causing issues with lifter damage along with oil consumption problems. Actually seen a video where it was suspected to have caused lifter damage to the point that the engine had to be replaced in a C7 on brink of speed. Just wondering about an AFM disables for my Stingray

      @@skslone9450 well that's a controversial subject for sure. I don't find something guilty if it's only suspected, there has to be pure evidence. Hard to determine what caused the failure if the data is not there.

    • @skslone9450
      @skslone9450 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ozzstar's Cars suspected may have not been the correct word, Chevy dealers are saying this was the cause of the failures even with engines still under warranty. So I was just curious and brought it up due to your mechanical know how and skill. Thanks and keep the videos coming!

    • @ozzstars_cars
      @ozzstars_cars  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      That is a porcelain reproduced Delaware antique tag. My particular tag number would have originally been issued around the early to mid 1940's. All tags issues in Delaware are numerical, no letters. The lower the number the more valuable and prestigious it is. Tags can be bought and sold. Single digit like number 6 sold for around $460K dollars. A 5 digit tag like mine is probably worth $800-1200. A four digit tag around $4-6K. A number like 333 brings more money than 332 or 334 would, which is around $40K. I considered making a video on the subject but not sure if many would be interested. Thanks for stopping by brother!
