Ecklers, Mid-America, and West Coast Corvettes. From what I have seen, the quality is very good.

Many pieces available here. They have a GP for the intake cover in the forum store.

If you look up my recent thread "performance design specialties" where I was complaining about waiting sooo long for my 3 chrome pieces, you will see that they have had some problems. I think that they are find to order from and they do have the premium chrome products still. They sell the same products as DS plus they have added some. They are very expensive though. 859-342-7600 See Ya Doug

I bought their rear exhaust filler and they were great to deal with. They weren't even sure if it would fit on a Z06 (had fitted it to the base model exhaust). I had it color anodized black chrome and they were still willing to take it back if it didn't fit (full refund). I am surprised to hear this news as they were nothing but friendly. But, just like every company, some people have good luck, some have bad luck. If you do contact American Car Craft (Mid America sells their stuff as well as a couple of others), talk to Lisa. She was great to deal with.Good luck.
