    Spiral Gray Z06

    Should I paint the black Z0 spiral gray. It looks a lot like DSG which I really like and I get paint work done a a discount.

    Or should I leave it alone

    Already doing a little moding on the car. We will be pulling the interior and using a dynamat and a spray that should cut the tunnel heat and quiet down the motor

    Patrick over at Quality has been a pleasure to deal with so far

    Get a Zo6 partition and Loydds deck mat for 80% of that racket
    I owuld do a custom paint of I were to paint it. Maybe a two tone with black lower and either DSG or the new Cyber gray top with a silver border line both are supposed to have a little blue in them. I don't think spiral gray is that deep of a color.

    You can also drop the rear fender liners and 3M glue foam stuff to them. That silver laminated bubble wrap from Home Depot is about the best deadener for the C5 road noise.
    For paint I always wanted to do the black and silver theme from the 99 C5R Rolex car. Minus the decals I think it would be an awesome scheme for a street car with the checker flag theme.

    Or just clear and sand the black to show gloss and add a gray grand sport inspired stripe.

    The red fender hashes are pretty well accepted still.
    Or maybe a Z16 stripes in gray on black. The 99 Rolex is still my favorite.
