Default Got a new custom made HU plate....sweeeet

I found a company that makes very nice HU plates for our vettes. I had a custom one done with the "Z06 405hp" on it. It is made out of Alum. and looks very nice....... If someone wants to see a pic I'll email it to you. I'm going to have it installed on Monday with my Alpine HU.

The lower part of the plate says "corvette" and the Z06 part will light up Blue with leds. The mount plate is thick plastic.

I like the idea that I got something custom and didn't have to spend a arm and leg. No vette tax !!


PM me if anyone wants more info,

have a good one Tim

What size pic can be posted ? I tried to upload the pic and it said it was too big, but I took it in a lower resolution just so I could post it.

I could pm it to someone if they want to post it for me.

I really think people will like these plates.

Tim

Thanks..... they start at only $40 for the vette ! You can have just the large "corvette" where my Z06 is and it's just $40. I had my custom made to the Z06.......


hope you guys like it

ive got a lot of ideas running through my head, the problem is i dont write them down, or make notes.....so out they go until something reminds me of it.

i would love to have the corvette and the Z06 logo light up

I do not know this guy personally, I just found his website thru someone and He has done a great job of helping me make my plate.

I knew people would want to have him make plates for them, and told him I would help spread the word.

If anyone wants contact info let me know,

Tim in Az ...

.... if you contact him , tell him you saw my post on the vette site.

Mine cost me $70 ..... the basic mount with "corvette" cost $40 the light cost $20.....$10 if you want red.... and $10 for the custom lettering.

Since the company is not a sponsor , PM me and I'll pass on the website name.
