Default Car show!!

Hey guys,
So Im deployed at the moment and my z06 is at virginia speed for some final touches on my tune. They are going to a car show on saterday and are using my car at their booth!!!! Im very excited even tho I cant be there. Ill get me some pics tho from some friends. The funny thing is I had my caravaggio spoiler installed, BSMs removed, Painted my fenderbadges black, painted my centercounsil to match my EB paint, And a showroom detailing while I was over here!!! So it will be like a whole different car!! Now just waiting on putting in my new C6 seats, HArdbar harness bar, Nitrous, and my CCW 505s. I cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats on the car, and yes it's fortunate our Nation takes care of us the best they can. Enjoy the simple pleasures in life while you can and really appreciate the feeling we all get driving a Vette of our own.

Thanks for your service , stay safe . Nice looking Z06 you have there, I like the blue lip on your rims, and it could look nice with your new CCW's. Your blacked-out lights look good too.

Thank You for your service, When I was in the service way back in 1970 I have to say it was some very important years in my life I will never forget nor regret. Thanks again and be safe and know your service is appreciated very much.
Now, Nice Z you have there....
