yeah man, anything you have?? i was hoping to see some day shots of the lights, just to see what the fitment looks like and everything. I think I like the looks of the lights, but there is a lot of other things i'd like to buy for the 1200 bucks (give or take). was it a pain to install those, or did you have them professionally installed? any feedback would be great! I think those c5r headlights look stellar on the black c5 vettes man, great work with your ride! Thanks in advance! roen1ck
hey nemesis - is there any way to see some pics / maybe a video of those c5r headlights?? do you have any that you could post, or perhaps send VIA email?? thinking about springing for something like that...thanks man! btw - that is one sick vette :)
@roen1ck Thanks bro, I'll look through my videos and see if I have something better. I'm assuming you want night pictures with the lights on? If daytime you want, I have plenty...let me know and I'll email you some.
sick vette but id loose the head lights, people probably think your an import until they see your car. get in another car and look into your headlights and tell me that its not irritating..again very nice corvette!
Headlights are much crisper looking now. HID's were new and took a while to burn in.....definetely not irritating through true high quality optics which these have. Thanks for the props!!
@pootietang420 yeah its really hard to tell from just a video but when im in my vette or camaro i haaaate cars that have those reallllly bright almost blue lights that basicaly blind me lol like new bmws or something like that...i need to make a video of my 91 vette
well since i left that comment my dad bought a 2008 vette and the headlights are like this and it really does improve you sight, i was very impressed when driving the car. but what? aerodynamics? how do head lights improve aerodynamics??
@pootietang420 think about NIGHT TIME aerodynamics. 97-04 vette use pop up lights to shine the headlight, obviously. when the pop up lights are up, that creates wind resistance for the car. Now the driver might not even notice it at all while driving but wind resistance is more apparent at higher speeds. a car with fixed lights can manage higher speeds better than a pop up light car.
i actually didnt even notice these were fixed in place..might create the small difference but really when is this guy gonna go top speed? and it totaly takes away from the C5 look and makes it look just plain bad. i would go back to the stock light with LEDs or just get a C6..
pop up lights holds the car back at top end speeds, its why gm got rid of them for the c6. top speed c5 is around 186 c6 is 196 and the lights has alot to do with this. c6 has about 50 more hp. stock but not having the pop ups helps for wind residence it was like having two lil walls on the front end. i had a 2001 c5 and that kit was like 1500 at the time. its not just for looks.
i bought a charger srt last year but i told my dad let me buy a vette but he was like you gonna kill yourself before you pay your first payment :D lol
at the beginning the back is a c5 then when the camera is on the side and it looks like a c6 then the front is a c5... never seen one like this it looks like a c5/c6 which is cool. nice car :)
yeah its ok its not hard to see a idiot with comments like you make about a nasty sounding LS motor. It sounds like all the other cammed vettes and camaros and T/A's. Its ok to know nothing about cars heck my wife dont know much either
It was filmed underneath an awning at a car wash which magnified the amplitude of the sound. Also the video was filmed using just a digital camera rather than a camcorder, that is why the resolution is so grainy.
I purchased the Tigershark front fascia & MCM hood from 21st Century Muscle Car, the rear fascia and C5R headlights from Specter Werkes and the rear flared fenders from Lewis Five Motorsports
No doubt. My uncle has a C5 Z06. Bigger cam, new headers, underdrives, flywheel, etc. He puts out around 500 to the wheels. Took me out on the highway once and my feet went numb from the blood getting pushed back into my body lol. He runs constant low 11 second passes. He burnt out a $1600 racing clutch in a year and a half though lol. Daily driver too. Gotta love the vette's. America's sports car since 1953.
Killer vette, especially the hood. Hard to believe you can pick up a C5 for around 25K these days. Any reason you decided to go with a positive displacement blower rather than a procharger? Traction must be a bitch in that thing lol
Thanks for the compliment on my car. The components are "TigerShark" front fascia, Specter Werks "Group 5 rear fascia", Motor City Mold(MCM) carbon fiber "heat extractor" hood, ACI Corvette "rocker panel vents" with ACI Corvette "side skirts", L5 MotorSports "flared rear quarters"...
