Bet it sounds great! Are you going to re-clear the top, or polish it out? Either way, get some pics of the process.
Things are good up this way. Picked up an ACI chin spoiler, to match the rear, over the weekend. Painted it Monday, and just finished spraying the clear on it a few minutes ago. I'll wet sand it tomorrow, and get it polished so I can install it Thur or Fri. Of course there will be pics of the finished product.
There's an evening show Sat. July 11th(I think the dates right) at the Green Turtle. I'll get the specifics to you guys if you wanna roll up north and hang with us MESV nutballs.

I'll post some pics whenever I get it started. That ACI chin spoiler is nice. I considered getting one, but it would be torn off on these roads.

Yeah send me the dates for the show. I 'may' be around in July.

For me, it has to be my 99 Coupe...it's bone stock, nothing special...but it was my first Corvette...and buying it was an INCREDIBLE lifechanging experience...In fact, I refer to the time before I bought it as B.C. (Before Corvette)!!!

Lose the tail light and reverse light louvers, lose the mud flaps, lose the side molding, and lower it. Once done, post the results, along with the original picture and see what people think looks better.

That's an old pic... Ive already lowered it and removed the splash guards, added Tigershark exhaust and rear Z-06 brake scoops..I like the rest of it so it's a moot point....Heres a shot showing the Tigersharks, but before I pulled the splash guards...

You have a very clean car, I'm just saying that sometimes less is more.

Thanks, and I completely understand....Personally, I dont like the C5s with all the chrome and stainless steel treatments to the taillights, side markers, etc....But to each his own
