I like the overall look of 1 and 2. The rear spoiler from the first one and the hood in the second one. I do not like the Viper looking grill at all. Overall nice drawings, but it is not something I would be interested in.

The Gulf paint scheme was prominent in Ford GT racing, but also on other cars including Corvettes back in the day. I like the concept and the twin scoops look as though one is an under hood air relief system and the other a cold air intake. The concept is awesome, but it looks like an impossibility to redesign the side window treatment on a C6 to look like the C7. It looks more like a C7 redo.

Hmmmmm....I edited my post and it ended up posting twice???

I like most of it. The design looks like a little was borrowed from lotus evora which I really like. Maybe if the rear fenders were a little more curved and not as straight out.

Looks great. If you're making a new rear bumper, how about using c5 halo lights?

Hi Don,
looks great. The side pipes I saw on the Vette you had there the other week looked great
I think you have a winner with the design.
I don't think it is a c7 wannabe, it looks like it's own car.

This is definitely the way GM should have gone with the C7. However, I would in no way consider doing it to a C6. I think the market for people who would want to try to make their car look like the next generation is very limited.

Your Close!!



Thanks for all of your time members posting on this kit. This project is expensive to design and tooling up for Quality parts. I like creating art for people that like something different but has good taste in design with knowing that thy are getting GM quality parts to put on there corvette. I am designing a kit for the C7 corvette but I also love the C6 and there are about 600,000 C6 produced the C6 Stingray is art and my guess is sales at 1 kit a week for the next 10 years that makes it worth doing. Those that want a Extreme C7 will not be disappointed in the SS Vette Design. I love the platform GM gave me to work with. I like many of the C7 design but I am also disappointed in the changing of its heritage. I know those designers had to work in a box and many designers had to sign off on this C7 Stingray. But I can tell you this C7 Xtreme Stingray will have its 4 heritage tail lights but in LED 3D design as the next generation should be.. GM had the 3D image taillight correct but did miss the ball on getting the rear fascia correct and traditional tail lights. I mean no disrespect to GM and there designers thy are all top of there game but thy work in a box. I do not have the restraints of GM designers this is why I own my own design business. I will poll the C7 as soon as our C7 arrives in my shop. But for those that paid for there C6 corvettes and want a cool project thy can have these options to convert your corvette into a rear art corvette that will be the highlight of any show. We also do all kits in house you can inquire to Wayne at www.xtremesupercars.com (561) 307-1521 I share a shop with Wayne and I inspect your car to assure its built to GM standards. We offer picking your car up and delivering it back...Thanks Don SS Vette Inc at 405 N Military Trail West Palm Beach 33415

I also have a list of highly Qualified shops across the US that can do these current extreme kits. I will post these shops on another thread. or you can email me at dncls@yahoo.com for one located close to you. Don
