Please don't take this the wrong way...........Do you show your car pretty much full time or is it just a hobby? BTW the display looks great.

Ive since added Z06 screens, that spear that splits the turn signals, Eradispeed plus 2 drilled and slotted rotors, painted the calipers black with silver lettering, painted a bunch under the hood, put a black leather/black suede interior kit inside, a C6/Z06 shifter, and a brushed aluminum dash kit to accent the black on black on black interior.
Yokahama AVID tires just went on as well (Thanks Luke @ TireRack.com) - 20" rears, 19" fronts on HRE 547 wheels. Oh yea, and its lowered as well.
EDIT: Oh yea, - Added an Infinity Reference amp, Sub and door speakers as well as ipod/XM hookups for the stock head unit.
Borla cat back exhaust with 4 inch tips. Vararam intake.
I gotta make a list - the mods have just gone on and on and on and on and on...
Thanks for the kind words!

Yes, I bought this 2000 Coupe from NASCAR driver Kevin Grubb in Mechanicsville, VA. Seems in VA they put em in the center of the car.
Tried to get MS to put it there as well but have not found a shop that will comply.
Left the last VA inspection on it just for a bit of history on the car.

If you can, get a Motor City Mold hood. Excellent fit and finish and looks awesome. Here's a pic of mine.

Good luck. I just got word today that MCM may no longer be making these due to illness/death. I'm waiting for a call back now.
