You guys aren't joking about the wealth of information here. Dim HVAC display - fixed (Even though I later sent to Daves Corvette Ilumination for LED upgrade). Pre-warmup chirp from under the hood - fixed with a new set of Gatorbacks. Cracked HUD bezel - fixed thanks to OEM part from Gene Culley and instructions found here. Great information, great vendors and great cars!

Welcome fellow white vette owner. Very similar to mine except mines a coupe. Arctic White with Light Oak leather interior. Great choice IMHO...

Very classic color combo, a great foundation for future mods!! You mentioned that no future performance mods are planned, Hummmm, I've heard that one before, lol! May I suggest a simple mod/s that won't break the bank, K&N filter, and lowering it a 'tad' for additional visual appeal!! And by the way, Welcome to owning "America's Only Sports Car"!!

Thanks! Any pics of your interior? Always looking for a new idea.

What is the value to the K&N filter? I've also read their not a straight forward install. I've also considered lowering to improve the stance. I want to get my 2010 GS rims on first. Do you think most have luck improving the stance just by lowering using the stock bolts?

2004 White Vert w/Light Oak top. Stock from a performance standpoint but have added some cosmetic mods.

Mrs. OurC5 picked up a set of 2010 GS repo wheels and new slotted and drilled rotors for Xmas which will include painting calipers black when added.

Won't post much but alway enjoy reading everyone's threads. Hope you like our addition to the community.

Welcome! Very clean, good looking Vette!

I've got a couple of new pics of the rims my wife got for Christmas. I hope they are oriented correctly.
