They are rear quarter vents from the C7 corvette.

So here are some really poor quality pictures of where I am right now. Finally got at alignment and front camber is set at -3.6 and while the rear is at -2.6. So far I haven't smashed my front fenders so that's good. It's a little higher than I originally wanted but I'm fine with it.

Thanks. I ended up just rebuilding the front wheels before getting an alignment. Hard to see in the pics but I'm running a 4.5 inch lip up front and a 6.5 in the rear.

Very nice. Any pictures down the side of the car? Would like to see how the neg camber looks from that angle and see how it lines up to the fenders

Ask and ye shall receive. The tire is the cause of the camber up front. I used to run a 235/35 when it was stock body. Now I have a 255/35 up front. Since the fender is fiberglass, I really want to provide clearance for it so I raised it a little and installed Megan upper control arms so I could pull it back in.

That looks great, just under 4 degrees up front looks perfect. Ever think about going air?

Air would make my life easier but I have a wife and kids.....an air cup kit is ideally what I would want if I had the funds.

Surprised you got this far haha. Air management isn't too bad these days. Could put bags in your existing coilovers and get a used management system, small tank and single compressor.
