Awesome, prefer the AE's without the body side molding.
Yes, most are the same, but I was hoping to see some with slight modifications, ie, chrome wheels, rear spoiler, etc.
Omg, that should get some die hards going... What? Mod an anniversary edition? The horror!

I have an SLP rear spoiler, waiting for warmer weather to install it. There's another thread on that subject making me think I might have it done by my local independent body shop. I have a Wind Restrictor in it now too, works great!

I saw one at a show a few years ago that had a Vette Essentials custom interior that matched the shale/AE red trim, a double din NAV, a Caravaggio rear spoiler and aftermarket deep dish wheels that matched the OEM anniversary edition wheel color. It was incredible!

Is the wind restrictor worth the money and does it Really reduce the buffeting winds?

Please post the pics of the spoiler when you get it done.

I can wear a flat cap, top down, windows down @ 70 MPH. Sometimes an oncoming truck will shake the hat a bit. Quiet is a relative thing, the top is down after all and the GHL Bullets sound great.

Hey FF,
I've been thinking about the air deflector. I really like the look! Does it bug you when you look in the mirror or can you see through/over it??

I didn't get the lighted one, I barely see it in the mirror and with the top up it doesn't even come up to the bottom of the back glass. You can get one without any etching if that is a concern.

So can you see through the etching OK - did it take some getting used to? It looks awesome by the way!!!!
