Default How many mods...makes Vette a "Custom"???

:confused: Just wondering how far you think someone can go before it is a Custom Corvette. The obvious answer would be if it wasn't build that way from the factory it's a custom :rolleyes:

I would say if the paint is custom (Not a factory color), rims are custom, or any body mods & interior changes would put a Vette into a custom category.
I know if I tried to show mine the judges would put it in a custom class.

Maybe I see it differently but to me "custom" means changes to the body panels and/or radical changes to the interior. Mods to the motor, suspension or wheels are just modifications and don't make it a custom car.

oops, there was a question here but then I read the answer :o

I think it only takes 1 thing to make a car custom if that one thing is a big tacky wing...
