Default Where to buy California Supervettes Roof Treatment?

Makes a C6 look like a C7 without Audi Xmas tree driving lights or Camaro tail lights. Where to buy?

Somehow, the idea of spending several hundred dollars to make a bigger blind spot on my car, does not appeal to me.

I talked to those guys on the phone about this mod awhile ago. You'll have to ship your car to them as they don't ship the parts out. It's not cheap as you will have to buy the rear fenders so that the halo can 'sit right' and be flush next to the rear wings. To me it wasn't worth sending my car to the other side of the continent for a cosmetic mod.

It sure looks good though.

Very true...instead you give your rehearsed tirade on everything that is wrong with the grandsport and manage to find a way to fit it into every thread you can find. It is beyond comical you call somebody out on a thread you started for being rude when your act is the exact definition

Why don't you buy one, put it on and make a post about it, then we can all come in and tell you how stupid your car looks and what an idiotic thing to do to it.

Thank you SilverScorp and vig1116 for your courteous and informative replies to my question. I've already invested in some sixty mods and some $10,000.00 to convert my C6 Coupe into the Touring Edition C6.5 Corvette GM never saw fit to build. Of these, nineteen, or nearly one-third have been exterior appearance mods, including bodied colored ZR1 style chin splitter and side skirts, which look absolutely awesome on the very aerodynamic and attractive Coupe body. But I don't think anyone with half a brain would say I'm trying to pass it off as a ZR1. Instead of a couple hundred dollars to adopt the Supervettes roof treatment, I suspect it will run a couple of thousand, plus a trip to the west coast to and back from NC, plus the time and expense that would entail. Again I don't think anyone with half a brain would think I'm trying to pass my car off as a C7, a really busy and confused looking car inside and out, and under hood. Again, thank you, I sincerely appreciate your help.

Actually, except for the illegal tail-lights, your car is very attractive inside, outside and underhood.

As far as I know, your only contribution was: "Corvetters, place your bets". I didn't understand it, but that dosen't neccessarily make you a "jackleg", another term I don't understand.

For the record, this is not a "Supervettes" design. We had (a) customer that chose to put these on his car, and while it does look good on a black Vette with our ZR6X kit, IMO, it just looks like a wanna be Ferrari California in any other color. They are made overseas, not here in the USA as all of our parts are.
