I decided to put money in the body and under the hood. Besides, I needed the high rise hood for the engine clearance.

I am assuming here that you are referring to a very small, but select group of guys who are punks but happen to own Mustangs? Cause if you are including people like me in that category, then you are crossing the line. Yes, in addition to the Corvette I have Mustangs, ...and Toronados, and an MGB. I happen to like cars!

If you had not have put greenwood in the poll I would have responded. To me there are some much better looking kits out there , then greenwood.

greenwood kit right from the greenwood website


groundeffects kit from corvette central copy of greenwoodslooks like they are copying greenwood other than that awful looking stalker kit that corvette central sells. i admit there is some kits out there i wouldnt use either cause they just look awful but this is the kit i refer to when i am talking of greenwood ground effects the motorsport kit


now this is an awful disgrace to a corvette to me
