I haven't been on here for awhile but here's my cav
I'm kind of embarrassed of the rear because I don't even have the factory spoiler
But I bought the car about 5 months ago for 5 grand. Its all base model and had a few scratches but it only had 27,000 miles on it when I bought it.
Since then I put those rims and tires on that was $150 for all four rims and tires(one tire is bad)
The two rockford fosgate twelves in a box and a fosgate amp that was also $150
its not a fabulous system but it hits pretty hard.
Those blue headlight bulbs that was like 25 bucks
The ecotec decals it was like 5 bucks installed for both
The intake is off ebay it was like 35 bucks
I think that's pretty much it.....
Just to warn you guys my car has huge ugly wheel gap, is in desperate need of window tint, and looks like @!#$ with the front license plate on just a disclaimer lol
HERE THEY ARE
Any comments welcome bad or good

Not a bad start...decent plans too.
Like you said...needs a drop! Do it right the first time too...don't buy cheap springs and make sure you replace the shocks/struts!
Eh...old man with a Corvette now...it was bound to happen sooner rather than later right?
What about tiens?
***Looking for a BLUE 03+ STOCK cavi wing pm me if ya got one you wanna sell***
tiens are good all depends on what type of drop you are looking for some springs drop 1.4 all the way around others 1.8. If your looking for a good clean drop go with eibach sportlines 1.7 in the front and 2.3 in the back. Thats what i got along with kyb agxs. If you go that route be sure to get the right kybs. Some are meant for a drop and others are meant to replace your stock oem shocks and struts.
forget the drop Hahn turbo asap

AGX's are meant for the sportlines. There are two different kybs
Kyb gr'2 = BAD for sportlines
KYB AGX adjustable = GOOD for sportlines
Kyb gr2's are just a upgrade to your stock supension
the agx can handle a drop ask anyone that has them, i have had mine for over a year with the sportlines and i love them fronts and rears are set all the way to stiff. makes taking corners a breeze.

Verdict.......not really
meant for each other, despite your success. Just trying to prevent a denied warranty claim, as I've known a few people blowing these out running past a 1.5" drop.

i know gr2's are not the adjustables the gr2's are like 70-80 a piece the agx are 125-130 a piece
Actually that was from the AGX listing, they're only warrantied for a 1.5" drop despite being adjustable.
It just mentions that they're a step above the GR2's.
ahh well that thats what i was told from someone else on here so i went with it. To each their own i guess
I bought the intake awhile ago its actually for a Z24 but it fits.
***Looking for a BLUE 03+ STOCK cavi wing pm me if ya got one you wanna sell***
The KYB AGX's are meant to be used with the Eibach Prokit, which gives you a 1.4 drop all around. That's what I'm running and I love it. The sportlines drop you past the agx warranty, so if you do them you are on your own when you blow the struts.
Nice car. A lip kit, drop and tint and you'll be golden.
Man, why can't I find a deal on a car like that? Good start...keep'r going.

a ton of wrong info going around in this thread
kyb gr2s. they are oem replacements only and should not be used for a drop.
kyb agx. are only good for a small drop up to 1.5". they will no warranty anything lower than 1.5" you can get away with going with a 1.7" drop but that would be the max i would suggest. anything lower than that will start to wear the struts much quicker.
if you lower 2"+ you should only use koni yellows or tokico dspecs (thats if you want to do it right atleast)
THANKS FOR ALL THE SUPPORT GUYS!!!!
