Here is a link to the C5 Parts Section, keep an eye out, you might see something. All of the forum vendors I have dealt with so far have been great.

They are all supporting Vendors........good luck its just the beginning

Let the modding begin.

Z06 front air screens
Exhaust Plate
Rear brake louvers
Shift *****

These all come from Mid America Designs at http://www.madvet.com/ I would also recommend you check out West Coast Corvettes at http://www.westcoastcorvette.com

Enjoy,

If you ever interested in the rest of the screens you might try Vetteshop. I got mine for 39.95 where at Mid America they were like 150 or so. I got my Z06 screens there also. This place has turned to me into a modaholic.

For the screens, try Fichtner Chevy or Fred Beans. For the tranny ****, maybe Vette Essentials. For the other items, there is Mid-America or Ecklers. Good luck and congrats on the car.
