Think twice before starting to mod. it's a slippery slope once you start. Good luck and enjoy your new toy.

thanks for all the replies, I definitely will be here very often since work is... well, work. Anywho, I have already been scared a couple times and that's why i won't be modding yet. Gotta get over that and I should be good to do a little. I'll be around the region see ya out there!

Default congrats

Congrats on that new vette. Sorry to hear about the Z but your better off with the vette. No winter driving around Cleveland with your new ride.
I recommend a new exhaust. I put a Corsa exhaust on my 01' and it sounds so much better. Had a bit of explaining to the wife on why I was removing a perfectly good exhaust but it is on now.

There is a Corsa building in Berea that you can go out and talk to them. They have a great vette show in July and you can hear different vettes with the Corsa exhaust. The garage the recommend for installation is located in N Olmsted. Great guy owns the garage - he has been a real help with all my questions and concerns with my vette.

Hope to See you around Cleveland - West sider here.

Send me a private message if you want any info on Corsa or the garage.

Use tinypic if you are doing a one-time picture post. No registering required and is basically 1-step. Just go to the homepage and pick out the pic you want to upload. It goes to another page with the links you use to post it. Real easy.

If you remember the name you gave each picture you can even search them out and re-post them again later. If not, well they are probably lost on the site.
