Default Did some minor mods to the Vette today.

Installed the carbon fiber rear spoiler, side skirts, dechromed everything. Still waiting for the front spoiler.

Nice color combination. You need to get the wax out from the cracks.

Nice looking C7 and color combo. Not a fan of the spoiler, prefer my Z51 spoiler.

Looking good. It’s a splitter on the front, not a spoiler.

Good looking car! Its amazing how much those small mods change the appearance. When added up, you have a Hell of a difference.

Thank you so very much!

Absolutely amazing how so many other people think they can judge a car from just a few photos..... There is NO wax in any of the "cracks"...you are seeing things or only the light reflection of the super shiny paint...

Also....Im glad you prefer the belly button rear spoiler of the stock Z51 or the other belly button stage 3 spoilers....I chose to be different and the compliments I get show I did not go wrong...But thanks for all the input....worthy or not.....

Lets see all your Corvettes so I can critique them.....

In the future you should warn people you’ll get all butthurt if comments are anything less than complimentary.

Or grow up ….your choice


Looks great and I’m sure I speak for most when I say it’s appreciated that you moved it off what’s left of the driveway for your latest pics

If I called your spoiler bullshit, you wouldn't be offended? All I stated that I wasn't a fan of your spoiler and you turned it into a pissing contest.
