Beautiful ! Just got my first vette. 2017 Stingray in Watkins glen grey. I’ve had a blast owning this car ! Definitely matches up to the super car ownership experience, owning the stingray has given me a new found love and appreciation for American sports cars and especially corvettes. Looking to upgrade to a Zo6 or Zr1 in the same color in the future. But for now just working on building the stingray and having a f***king blast! Stay safe, love the ride brother
Great Vlog, like your mods, just got 2017 Z06,07 7800 miles for myself for Christmas. (Wife approved) want to do these mods before I put any miles on it. Thanks for again.
A yellow C7 Z06 is my dream car. I have a white C7 GS convertible now, but if i get the opportunity to trade for a yellow Z06 it’s happening! Beautiful car, didn’t even need anything but window tint!
@@FrontSeatDriver i did i recently traded it for the C7. It was a 2022 Carbon Fiber limited edition. Super cool car as well, but i wanted a convertible.
Love the new intro! Nothing wrong with going solo on your uploads. OMG, your ZO6 is no longer numbers matching! You changed out the exhaust valance to a GS valance! Oh, no, no, no. Do you realize the loss in re-sale in value!? 😱 Yeah I know, you probably GAINED value. 😁 Love the front splitter side spats! I think you might consider upgrading the side skirts to complete "the look." Save the Wave and Stay safe!
@@FrontSeatDriver It was hard to tell from the video and shadows, but I thought you only had the 3/4 ones. I was thinking the full length contoured would be better. It that's what you already have, forget the suggestion.
I have a screw moving and rolling after I used the steering Mech to move far and close to driver. Have you or your friends experienced this? We took the pieces off and felt around the steering and found nothing.
Whoa. No, I have not heard of that. I'll ask around and message you back if I hear anything. That's gotta be annoying if you hear it rolling around while driving.
Hi there, I have a 2016 Stingray Z51, which chip is a good plug and play you'd suggest that has great quality and best reviews? I've seen some that will get it from 460hp to 500hp but I'm still a little skeptical on those that run about $250 only. Would love your input. Everything else on the car is stock and only has about 5k miles on the car as well. It's the 7speed manual trans.
I don't like yellow vets but yours looks sweet. Also, I went in to buy that exact Limited Edition blue GS but could not handle that electric blue seating. I went with a blacked out z51 with all the Mods instead and saved myself $11,000. To each his own.
Have the side black outs and the rock guards want the front spoiler the origial owner put scrape guard so have to see how i can add the spoiler also love the rear spoiler i have the z51 and want to upgrade i have the side carbon fibre side skirts
Nice Z06 🇺🇸...... I bought the XL rock guards for my 2019 Z06 excellent product . ACS is a good company. I’m thinking about getting the front splitter from them also , not sure if I should go with stage 2 or 3 . You should add the black lug nuts to your car. ACS has those also .
I was talking to my friend about the black lug nuts. Something to consider for sure. They look great! I had stage 2 and liked it but I installed the stage 3 and think it looks better.
Have you read anything about the black out of the reflectors still passing a yearly safety inspection? That is my only fear of making that modification so I’m interested in prior knowledge.
Thank you! And I plan to do that but I will need to redo the roof as well. It's actually a carbon fiber wrap that the previous owner installed and I don't think I can match it.
Jason !!!!!!!! Nice job bro. Your car is looks bananas 🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌 my friend... no pun intended Lol. All great mods for sure. ACS stands for Awesome Corvette Shit...or Stuff if they're watching. Thanks man. 👍👍😉😉😁
I had to pay to swap it from my Grand Sport to the Z06. But they’re ACS Composite rear diffuser fins. I believe I paid $400 for them several years ago but it’s quite literally my favorite appearance mod. I probably have a link in the description.
It's almost identical to mine 2016 mine has factory black stripes from the hood scope to the rear bumper I love the look of my car from the back view and front view I hate the side view
I just got a 2018 yellow Zo7 3LZ looking at yours I love it, but now I need to add all those mods that you have where can I get that hood decal? I just subed
You need to black out the taillights. The Z06 badge on the side.. I change mine from red to yellow looks 100 times better. That badge Chevrolet should of matched to the car color. Everything else you did looks Good 👍
Thinking about getn that same exact car same color and everything love the c7 Seen the c8 recently was kinda disappointed dont like the rear way too busy look c7 much better
Great video! Have been considering upgrading my cold air intake on my 2019 Grand Sport. If you don't mind me asking, did you notice much of a difference on your Grand Sport between stock and the AFE intake? Beautiful car!!!!
Front Seat Driver Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it! What filter were you using by chance? I have watched quite a few videos related to cold air intakes and after market air filters. Ever try the Attack Blue?
@@FrontSeatDriver lol...i was messing w/you...it's a nice ride...each their own...some say my shark gray c7 is just too plain...but it's mine! thx for posting
@@americanveteranaceshigh9051 See, I LOVE Shark Gray. My dad has a Shark Gray Z06. My Grand Sport was Watkins Glen gray. I loved it too. But I did want something with more pop and I always loved Streetspeed's yellow Z06's.
Lol. No. Hopefully not on accident either. You might be surprised how many rocks get thrown up when driving after heavy rains. We did a cruise a while back and my friend had to rip off his wrap after it was over from all the rock damage. Funny thing was everyone liked it better white than purple. No, it wasn't Stradman 😜
It’s not junk. Changing cheap plastic to carbon flash that matches. That’s just smart. Replacing a stage 2 to a stage 3 front aero, exactly same as GM. Nothing junk about that. Adding carbon flash rock guards to prevent rocks from hitting my friends behind me? Smart. Adding diffuser fins to an unfinished looking rear end. Smart. Adding yellow seat belts to an interior that has yellow stitching, smart. It’s an option on the C8! Adding paint protection to prevent rock chips, smart. Ceramic coating paint to make my life way easier when cleaning, smart. I’m sorry but I respectfully disagree.

Thanks, Snookered. I had Watkins Glen Gray on my Grand Sport. That color is awesome and pops like crazy in the sunlight.
Man I’m dying! We have 2 videos ready to be filmed! Can’t wait to get out of lockdown!
No doubt! I'm pretty much done with this.
Awesome video, Jason! The car is looking GREAT!
Thanks, Justin. Can't wait until we all get together again!!

Congratulations Gregg and Merry Christmas!
You definitely need the Xpel as soon as possible if you don't have it.
Had to watch this again Lol 😂 I’m impressed that garage roll out is epic 💪💯💯
Thanks!! I put it together on a whim. Took like 15 min. I thought it turned out pretty good too.
Can’t hate on the Z06, but your GS takes the cake
Congrats on the upgrade, I really liked your competition GS you had and those tension blue interior priceless...
Thanks, Albert. I loved that car as well. The tension blue was the biggest reason I had chosen that car.
@@FrontSeatDriver 650hp will add more excitement to the vette experience.
i expect that it will. looking forward to driving more soon!!
Another nice vid, Jase. Making the Z your own. Nice!
Thank you! 👍

Ditto on what HPO said...awesome intro !!!!!!! 👍👍
Thanks, JT!!
What’s the tint percentage on the side and windshield?
Unfortunately, they were tinted before I bought the car so I’m not sure but they’re extremely dark.
The first mod for our 2019 C7 was a Little Trees. We love it.
Little trees?
@@FrontSeatDriver So far that’s our first modification.. she hangs from the rear view mirror. Thanks for your participation sir.
@@atomicorang Absolutely!! 😃
Love the new intro!!! 🔥🔥🔥

What side skirts should I get? i have the full length ones now. I had the 3/4 side skirts on the G.S.

Thanks, Tim!! I am definitely planning on quite a few videos. Thanks for watching.
Thank you brother! Love your video. Ray
Thanks, Ray!!
Car looks amazing. I love the contrast of the black on the yellow.
Thanks, Scott!!
Front Seat Driver Can’t wait to see it in person someday

My friend has one he likes. I think you're talking about something like Pedal Commander. He loves his.
Nice ideas and car. Surely you know that in many states, the air cleaner, tinted side windows, and modding any lights/covering them is illegal.
Yeah. Some of that is illegal here too.
I would need to see your side markers on at night before I think of doing it. I agree that in daylight the blacked out markers look great.
I think you just see the led like dots.
Awesome video
Thanks, Les!
NICE JOB, LIKE THE MODS.
Thank you, Steven.
Good video🇺🇸
Thank you and thanks for watching!

That's awesome. You have some good stuff! I'd like scrape armor or something like that as well.
Great Content
Thank you , Marcus!
Great video. Intro was 🌡
U need to replace the flat fender flare pieces and get the carbon flash pieces from ACS.
I agree!! Something I have been thinking about. I definitely like the Carbon flash much better.
How do you keep your engine bay so clean?
Car was brand new. (To me) But it’s still pretty much the same today. I keep it in the garage and don’t drive in the rain.

No. I have never heard of anyone personally having an issue. A few of my Lambo friends have theirs blacked out too.
No roofbar blackout? It finishes the spears, esp on a blackened c7 (& obviously also with carbon roof). Great mods tho, awesome job.
Thank you!
And I plan to do that but I will need to redo the roof as well. It's actually a carbon fiber wrap that the previous owner installed and I don't think I can match it.
Congrats on the Z06 , very nice
Question: how would you compare the driving experience of this to the GS ?
Definitely different. Doing a video about that soon.
Unfortunately that much tint is illegal in Minnesota.
Might be illegal here too. Lol. Nothing has ever been said though.
Jason !!!!!!!! Nice job bro. Your car is looks bananas 🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌 my friend... no pun intended Lol. All great mods for sure. ACS stands for Awesome Corvette Shit...or Stuff if they're watching. Thanks man. 👍👍😉😉😁
Where did you get the black mirrors?
Sorry, I thought I replied to you. It came with the black mirrors. Not sure if it came factory that way or previous owner had them painted.
How much was the rear facia
I had to pay to swap it from my Grand Sport to the Z06. But they’re ACS Composite rear diffuser fins. I believe I paid $400 for them several years ago but it’s quite literally my favorite appearance mod. I probably have a link in the description.
It's almost identical to mine 2016 mine has factory black stripes from the hood scope to the rear bumper I love the look of my car from the back view and front view I hate the side view
Side view definitely isn’t the best. I love the stripes! I am a huge fan of racing stripes on the Vette.
Paint the rear fascia body color like i did, makes it looks so much better.
I would but I think it would be TOO much yellow! 😃
I sent you an email with my pictures.
I just got a 2018 yellow Zo7 3LZ looking at yours I love it, but now I need to add all those mods that you have where can I get that hood decal? I just subed
Awesome. Thank you! It's on the GM parts website I believe. I posted for someone else. Let me try and find it for you.

Congrats on the Z. I would love to have been able to find one with a Z07 package!
Your car looks really nice I have a grand sport 2019 and I love
Awesome! I LOVE Grand Sports. My last C7 was a GS.
You need to black out the taillights. The Z06 badge on the side.. I change mine from red to yellow looks 100 times better. That badge Chevrolet should of matched to the car color. Everything else you did looks Good 👍
Definitely interested in blacking out the tail lights.
The biggest visual impact was when we mounted Victor racings high wing and switched up the wheels.
Why didn't you elaborate on the stage 2 wicker bill...🤔
This video is really old. I don’t recall what I discussed
I have a 17 grand sport and put a k&n filter on it. It seems slower
A lot of Lambo guys use the K&N. I've never had one. Maybe put your stock one back on and see if the power returns.
I think I want to pickup a transparent roof... is yours?
No. They are bad ass though. Mine is a carbon fiber wrap. It was on there when I bought it.
Diffuser fins FTW!
Amen!!
Thinking about getn that same exact car same color and everything love the c7 Seen the c8 recently was kinda disappointed dont like the rear way too busy look c7 much better
I agree, Matt. You can't go wrong with a C7. I love the yellow. You will definitely stand out!!
Man, those stone guards stick out like flaps on an airliner. Don't they slow you down?
I only lose about 2 second on my 0-60 time. 🤣 Just kidding. No, not that I can tell anyway.
Hey brother, great video, and intro, loved them both! That car is looking saweet! 👍👊
Thanks, Mike! I am pretty happy with the intro. Especially since I made it in like 15 minutes and had very little footage to work with.
C7,Z06> 2021 StinGray C8
Battery tender. nice.
Great video! Have been considering upgrading my cold air intake on my 2019 Grand Sport. If you don't mind me asking, did you notice much of a difference on your Grand Sport between stock and the AFE intake? Beautiful car!!!!
I actually did. Seemed to have better throttle response. Sounded good too. Could hear a whooshing noise. I highly recommend AFE.
Front Seat Driver Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it! What filter were you using by chance? I have watched quite a few videos related to cold air intakes and after market air filters. Ever try the Attack Blue?
Tire stickers! They will change ur life
i agree. i love tire stickers. they seem to be one of those things people either love or hate though.
On my new zo6 ..soon....I will go with the rock guard that's it..
Those are very helpful. I still have an affintiy for the diffuser fins though. My favorite ACS product.
Love the car I have a 2019 z512lt artic white
Awesome! I smile every time I'm out and see a C7!!
Front Seat Driver lol thought it was just me
You getting the c8
@@countwalker9362 I plan to but waiting for the Z06. 😄
Front Seat Driver big money that’s gonna be to rich for my blood gonna be at least 100 thousand plus

Maybe you start by not buying it. Luckily it's my car and not yours. But thanks for the useless comment. They all help.

Ping me thru FB to meet up in DFW, to compare I too have Z06 with CCB brakes and now LG sway bars and a few more parts :-)
Hi, Jerry!! I didn't realize you lived in DFW. Will do as soon as we are able to get out and do stuff again. I cannot wait!! How's it going with you?
Change your lug nuts to black
Yes. I was actually looking at doing that.
😎👍🏾🔥💯
You sir should be ashamed! How about cleaning the exhaust tips????? have a good one
I'm hoping they secretly paint themselves black. And turn into Corsa. 😂 That will probably be a while.
C7>c8
Agreed!
Is this car fast lmfao
Pretty fast.
C6 is the best looking C7 ugly
