Default keep finding more mods

Seems like everyday I find another mod from the original owner. To date I've found:
Trunk popper
Borla stingers
headers, no idea what kind
K&N
C6 wheels
painted calipers
painted intake
chrome alt. cover, A/C cover
painted fuel rail covers
1 inch lowered
red smoothie in front of MAF sensor
And I've added:
Screen kit front, side, rear
Exhaust plate
painted targa black
Does the list ever stop?

Even when you think you're done - you're not done. I said I was finished, nothing to be added, and just yesterday I saw a post from Chip about the flags with a link to the Pipedreams web site....$425 later I've ordered chrome caps for under the hood and a gas cap.

Hang around this place long enough you'll keep find lot's of things that you've gotta have and can't live without - unless your name is Always Red Dave and the only thing you add is gasoline.

The answer is NO.

For years people have been telling us there are no more mods we can do to ours - but at least once a month there is another 'must have' mod

Are you guys saying that we can modify our cars? Wow! I thought that Corvettes already had everything! How much money, how much time, until "It never ends"? Better get back to work in case you'all are right!

cough, cough OH NO! Mod fever of 103, come on SB00 do you do more than dance, will you be ready when that mustang calls your bluff,,I think I am terminal!

Somehow the list never does seem to stop. Once you start modding, you're hooked.

I see no reason to ever stop. That's what keeps me going. It's fun and theraputic. I'll stop when I drop!
