Saturday project while wife was out of town - Woke up the Vette!!!!
Hi All,
Well the wife went out of town to visit her Mom, so the weather was nice most of the day, so had an opportunity to paint the "CORVETTE" lettering on the chrome wheels red to match the Calipers.
Also installed the data information plate on the dash replacing the one that came from the factory....
Very happy with my new mods....

The wheels look great with the red calipers and the red lettering! The data plate is very reminiscent of the 70s C3s and I like it. Good job!

There is a great thread in the C6 Gen section on painting the rear bumper lettering. It would be the same for the wheels....https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...-corvette.html
