Default Help me identify this C5...

I was going through some pictures of Corvettes that I took at a car show back in 2002. Several pictures are of Mallott Corvettes. Another few pictures where of a white C5 it had an after market rear spoiler, the hood was also aftermarket but it's hood scoop reminds me of the L88 (C3) style hood scoop. The only other different thing about the car was a side front fender emblem of a palm tree. There was a document in the windshield about a Corvette 500 Caribbean Cruiser. Does anyone know anything about these cars? I just found it unique. Thanks!
