That doesn't look anything like a C7.

Headlights and taillights look dated.

Why?

I can understand going to C2 body style on a C6, but a kit to go to a C7 makes no sense.

I've seen body kits that look a heck of a lot worse than that one does. IMO, it actually looks pretty good on the car.

I don't see the problem. Gets everyone the round tail lights they always wanted.

I think the C6 looks okay actually. Needs some C6 logos.

Now those bolt-ons "Caitlyn" has? Skip it. And while I'm bitching, couldn't Bruce come up with a better name? Why not go 100% unoriginal and name yourself something like Madison?

Looks a lot better than some of the c#*p that I've seen pedaled to the corvette community over the years. But it still seems like a waste of $ to me.

The larger grill opening and the understated wider rear fenders look good inho........close ups of fitment would be nice. I doesn't look anything like a C7 either. I'd say a cross between an s2000 and a vette
