      body kits for C5's?

      I was never a big fan of the Mazda RX-7 inspired corvette, looks wise, but its performace is obvious. How many different kinds of body kits are there?

      I'm sorry I'll elaborate, when you say awesome performance do you mean, the performance added to the car by the body kit or the performance of a stock c5?

      what I was trying to say is that its an awesome performance car but the only thing I didn't ever like were its looks and I was looking to see what replacements there are for its looks.

      There is the RK5 body kit on RKsport.com that looks really good, and they used to have a few other kits that look good, but that was a couple of years ago. Callaway may also sell a body kit for the C5.

      You can try this http://greenwoodcorvettes.net/gc5/index.htm
      That's for Greenwood body kit - looks wise beauty is in the eye of the beholder - but Greenwood's quality was always top notch.

      I'm not a big fan of body kits on Vettes in general... Saw too much greenwood crap when I was at the Vette shop.
      This guy makes some cool stuff though

      The Carvaggio stuff looks nice and clean, not too over the top.
