that photo is taken right from the greenwood corvette web-site. i will tell you this there is a very big differents from the actual greenwood corvette parts and any of the after market parts, believe me i know. my car has that kit from greenwood and they come serial numbered. but you get what you pay for. but the car looks bad.

Default Greenwood G4R body kit

The picture you refer to is a Greenwood G4R body kit. BacardiOil is correct - the picture was taken from the Greenwood site in order to promote C5 West's cheap knockoff of the G4R hood. I guess they haven't figured out how to take digital pictures yet. To see the real thing, go here: http://www.greenwoodcorvettes.net/gc4/index.htm

what do you guys think about the quality of the greenwood parts? I have my eye on a 799 kit, and prciing wise, that doesn't actually seem so bad. ( I had gotten it through my head to pay $1500 for a front bumper for my 00 miata once)

I put a greenwood scoop on mine. The fit is flawless. The bodyshop that painted my car was truly impressed at how well it fit on the hood.
