You guys/gals seem pretty damn cool/knowledgable. Been looking for a new slightly more active board and glad I found this one.

Cheers...Adam

Let me be the first to welcome you aboard. When I bought my Vette I looked at several forums and you are correct. This is the most active and informative!

Here we go.



RK sport hood with custom fiberglass point addition. Front ground effect, and no pop lights.



Interior molding swap from Light oak to Black to frame the interior better, 2 tone simulated carbon fiber console cushion.



Best recent pic I have to show the fade progression of the paint, been in the shop for a while upgrading some stuff



Another side shot showing the ground effects side and rear. a ridiculous amount of time was put into these to bring them up flush with the door.

Hope ya like...
