I appreciate it! The Hood was actually molded from the same design as the VIS COWL hood by a carbon company in L.A. The difference is really just in the quality of Carbon & Coating. The fitment is 100% and I have no complaints thus far. I also have the stock hood painted to match.

Last Sunday afternoon, around 4pm..heading east via Garden Highway/Arden. I'm about 99% sure I saw you heading west. The baddest Corvette I have ever seen and and I have been looking at them for many years. Congratulations.

Your car is absolutely stunning. The first car to cause me to stare at the pics for a while since seeing Andy's car. I'd be hard pressed to choose if I ever had the chance and the $$$ between the two cars. Congratulations on the artwork.

Joey, How many times have you gone out to your garage and just stared at your car now? I'd have a chair out there and possibly a drool bucket too!

She turned out Great!

Its funny you say that. Tuesday night I found myself just staring stupid after I had juiced up the tires and dusted the beast off.. It feels like a whole new ride.. Practically everything about this car "exterior wise" has drastically changed in the past couple months so its still very new to me.. I would have to say I am my own biggest fan if that makes any sense. As always I apprecaite all of the props and interest you've shared in my project! You will always be my favorite Monkey Man :o

Man, OUTSTANDING job on that! it's Bada$$, yet clean all at once!
Not over the top different that anyone can not instantly recognize it as a Vette, yet also clearly unique enough that even a non-vette, or even non-car enthusiast will know that it is special, and not something that someone just bought at any Chevy dealer. Its among the very best Custom C5s I've ever seen.

Post more pictures when you can!!!

That is just effin sick! Almost makes me want to run down to Home Depot and buy a case of flat black paint and do mine NOW!

If I was driving that thing, somebody would have to smack me in the mouth to get the evil grin off my face....
