C5 Center Waterfall??
I've got at '04 C5, hatchback (Targa Top) 'Vette... I've seen some vette's in tha past that had the center (painted to match) piece that I've come to find the name of it to be "Waterfall Center Trim". Is that only available on Convertibles, or can it fit my Targa Top version? Where can I order a black one to match? An lastly, can I hide stereo wires under it when I mount it? I.E. A stereo amplifier installation to make it look cleaner by running the wires underneath the waterfall... Thanks for any and all help!!

I've seen an aftermarket one for a coupe from one of the vendors. I'll see if I can find a link.

I bought my C5 coupe waterfall from them years ago. Recently, we needed to get one for my wife's C5, so I contacted the previous owner of Autobuffs and he had one left. Big thanks to JPM and Norm.
In the mean time, I did a little looking and came across these guys.

Also local, just like Autobuffs was, and surprise....they used the same pictures that Autobuffs put on thier site. I don't know if Autobuffs used to resell thier product, or if somehow the patent rights were changed when they went under. Either way, it's the only option right now for a C5 coupe waterfall.

I've seen it in person(last year carlisle actually)

RPI use to make them and were about 300-400 I think.
We walked over to their tent and asked them if they make it and they stopped a while back.
VERY good find nj02vette
