Just giving you some good natured ribbing, hope you took no offense. It is your ride so do what ever makes you happy, that what it's all about.

If you're planning on keeping the Continental kit, you should put fender skirts on it. I've never seen a Corvette with either. Stewart's74, please post on this thread.
