Dane Shuler’s 2008 Chevrolet Corvette takes the unmistakable shape of the C6 and brings it down to earth with an air suspension setup, staggered three-piece wheels, and a clean selection of exterior upgrades.
Representing Kohana Crew out of St. Peters, Missouri, Shuler took the #TBGLIVE win at Formula Drift St. Louis 2025 with his 500-horsepower Corvette. Under the hood, a GPI SS3 cam is paired with a Shane Hinds tune, along with Speed Engineering headers, an X-pipe, and true dual exhaust.
The Corvette sits on OdinSUS struts with Air Lift Performance 3P air management, bringing it down over staggered HRE 543 three-piece wheels measuring 19x9.5 up front and 20x11 in the rear. Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires wrap the HREs, while custom floating center caps add another detail to the wheel setup.
Morimoto headlights and taillights join Vettelights side markers, while ExtremeOnlineStore side skirts, splitter, and spoiler add to the exterior without taking away from the C6’s original lines. A Kohana Crew windshield banner ties the car back to the crew Shuler represents.
Inside, Malice carbon fiber bucket seats and a Malice steering wheel paired with an NRG quick release make up the more noticeable changes. The custom trunk setup incorporates a paint-matched air tank, while a Pioneer head unit, NVX subwoofer, and Kicker speakers handle the audio.
