Probably the best modified C7 I've still seen yet & it's not even actually heavily modified in its looks. The red with the right amount of black accents & the chrome wheels nail this design perfectly.

Morgan, If I did the rear spoiler in Carbon Fiber, I would have to also do the side mirrors. I'm thinking along the similar line with Ross.












I've got one more thing coming......a Carbon Fiber hood vent!

I love you Steven Bell. You can fly my blue angel any time...
Seriously...I thought the CF was too much...but I was wrong and I'm dumb and I feel bad and I should. It looks fucking robust and perky tits.

Wow, Jeremy! Thanks...I really appreciate all that.

Actually Morgan, if I order more carbon fiber parts, it would be the side vents and the upper vents (behind the doors). They actually make all those pieces now too.










I got some direct light photo's this afternoon.....

The sound of a Corvette coming at you at full throttle is unmistakable. Almost like Mustangs.

"Perm-a-grin" is a wonderful thing. Hard not to fall in love with your Corvette after you mash the throttle and row through the gears.

Ironically, I didn't mash it! But it still sounds good enough for the response from that guy......

Hey Steven, I hope you don't mind me Photoshopping one of your photos. I had this idea of a single split exhaust tip that was the same shape as the fascia. Does anyone make anything like this for the C7? Yay or nay?

Hi ST-I don't mind at all...actually, that looks great. There is a Vendor that makes that exhaust tip for an aftermarket exhaust. That looks really good!




By the way, the Carbon Fiber hood vent arrived. Installation is tomorrow at 10am Central.
