Painted Rear Bumper to match the car

I just picked up my c7 last week in Arctic White. Its z51 3LT. I painted the back bumper to match the whole car. I did not like how the two tone black looked up against the arctic White. Looks amazing.

I just picked up my c7. In Arctic White. I brought it right away to the body shop and had them paint that black part of the bumper white and they matched it. Looks Awesome.

C7 Arctic White is sure beautiful!

Had a new C7 park next to me at the a the Pavillions Car Show in Scottsdale on Saturday. I will be getting the exact color combo and options in a Vert. The new C7 is truly a Bad A$$ Vette. I wish all the new owners the best of luck.... Enjoy!

Nest is ready. Fresh repaint and Corvette theme. All I'm missing is my car... Only 6 months to go...

PS: Did not take the time to pull the car out so imagine my man cave with the gen 4 Camaro not there...
