Thread: Painted Rear Brake Vents

Started 1 month ago by Lentech
Has anyone tried painting these vents to color match to the car? I think they would look much better. I'm just wondering if the paint would adhere to the plastic well enough so they don't peel. Any tips on this?

This was our 6th or 7th year, and this year I got to bring home a Celebrity Pick award. A nice surprise. Rain? What rain? Didn't bother me in the least.

We had a great time as usual! Saturday was horrible, weather-wise, but Sunday made up for it! We also took home a Celebrity Pick award! The only bummer about Carlisle is that it ends way too quickly!

I have Yella Terra also. Can't believe GM allowed this known condition to exist for so many years. Yella Terras and no worries.

No, sorry.. I meant "remove the inner door panel (the leather/plastic/fiberboard panel). Once you do you'll see that there's an inner plastic "shell" and the mechanisms are all behind that surface (which is removable, but a PITA so I'd avoid it). You have to contort a bit to see where the window cables and pulleys and guide tubes and tracks are, but once you've spotted them, the long tube on the...

You are lucky you were able to slow down quickly. If you had been going faster, the deer likely would have slid up the hood into the windshield. I prefer hunting deer with a rifle or 12Ga w/slugs, but using the Z does make it "sporting" Thankfully you and the car are OK

If I was you this is how I would compare a c5 vs c6 z's C5- around $ 25k C6- around $ 50k I would go c5z just becuase of price. I have been happy with my choice of c5z and not upgrading to the c6z. Like Jasonsamara said things happen pretty quick and I am glad I have the extra cash to afford other things. Unfortunately to me there are more important things to buy than cars. But in 3 years you could be comparing a new c7 or a c6. Basically...

I vote to put the factor Titanium exhaust back on or put in more sound deadener. There are many excellent brands out there such as second skin. Good luck and let us know when you find your solution.
