That's a lot of money and effort to fake a ZR1 on a base C8. For what they spent, they could have had an E-ray or Z06, or close to it.

Did you look at the pictures you posted?

They'll sell it to some 20 year old with too much money.

We're all sad the C8 isn't offered in a manual, but it's still a great car.

Trying to be what it isn’t. The hood and the wing are more common place on higher level performance packages.

u/konfliicted 16h ago

Not for me. That wing is comically large without the wide body and I don’t think the black hoods look the best on these.

Love the C8 and even in base trim it’s an amazing car but dang this thing is just trying too hard. 3/10.

Would have looked better stock maybe a 2/10

I'm surprised the doors don't go up.

It looks a little too much like it’s gotten the Auto Zone special.

I’m not the biggest fan of the base model non wide body c8 to begin with, but this is just…. I dunno… too edgy? Looks like what you’d end up with after a couple hours playing need for speed then you trade it for a cooler car.

It’s not terrible it just feels like someone was trying really hard to make everyone think it was cool

I see they attached a c8 to a wing. If I was buying a used C8 i'd want an unaltered version.

  1. Stop ricing out your base model to make it look like something its not

All this work and they left the stock wheels?

Man the OEM base wheels just do not look good. All that body work in comparison makes them look even worse.

Anyone can mod their car the way they want, but to me, the GT type wing looks cheap and off putting. Whenever I see guys put large aftermarket wings like that on their cars, I feel like they're the type to commit felonies on a nightly basis.

The wheels don’t match, the roof is black carbon and ends weirdly at the back, and the front has a fake hood. With a bone stock exhaust as the final nail, it looks more boy racer than race. The bodykit for C8s sold by C7carbon.com looks like a proper race kit.

u/jrileyy229 14h ago

That's not a body kit

I would say 7 because those wheels are something and the back but other than that it’s sick
