Default Two year anniversary

I have been a proud Vette owner for two years today

Hope I make it at least two more before the cost of gas kills us all.

Only about 13,000 miles added to the 23k she had when I bought her.

Hmmm, just what have I added to my vette in the two years..........

CORSA Pace Car cb : $600 (used, from CF member)
ACA HIDs : $675 (gift)
HIDs for Fogs w/harness: $150
Vortex Rammer CAI: $150 (used, from CF member)
Escort 850 X50 blue $250
Replaced the Wagons with 5 spokes : $400 (used, from CF member)
Replaced the worn GYs with Michelins ZP: $ 900
Rear Corvette Letters : ??
Leather door Armrests : ?? (gift)
Leather console cover: $35 (used, from CF member)
Red Fuel Rail Covers: case of beer (used, from CF member)
Replaced the rockers: $550 (during a WOT run something went BANG.....it was a rocker spilling it's guts)
Rear window tint redone $150
Waxes, cleaners, and such ???
Front Fat Mamas $ ??
New Lloyds mats and rear cargo carpet : ?? (gift)
Lotsa Mobil 1 and filters

Likely have forgotten some items............

About to drop about $500 in common replacements, plugs, wires, belts, hoses, fuel filter, and all fluids
