Default Yellow Vettes!

Can people with yellow corvettes post pictures of your car here. I don't see many yellow corvettes in my area. I own a yellow one and I want to see what possible exterior/interior mods I can add to mine. Here is mine.

I live in the bay area too and have a yellow C5. Unfortunately I don't know how to attach photos.

Mine's not all that different from yours, except for the stripes.

I had the stripes painted in a satin black urethane. In hindsight I probably would have gone with gloss black as it's hard to keep them looking good with a nice uniform finish. Regular wax will cloud them up and leave white smudges on it. I recently found out that the new turtle wax ice synthetic wax works great though as it dries clear and doesn't leave any white powder behind.

Since I haven't done any real exterior mods besides the Euro taillights and the other mods Ihave done are Blackwing, LG Headers, Corsa exhaust, SS Inserts in the rear letters and the interior. Here is my interior that was just done by Vette Essentials:

Get a hood. Use vinyl for stripes.
