Thanks Mike

I gave some serious thought about l-5 flares but decided against them since my vette is a daily driver. If I have another car and stored the vette in the winter then I would of probably done the l-5 flares.

I really wanted to pull the trigger on gunmetal as well but I know I'll change wheels again soon so I selected the easy color to resale

And beside, I got black stripes so just don't want too many colors on the car

They would look great and one of a kind on your car
