Default Had some new work done

Had the QuickZ06 rear spoiler installed and painted. Also had the rear painted black, QuickZ06's fender flares installed, deleted the tail markers and the T-10's that I purchased powder coated gloss black with a thin red stripe on the inside.





Also installed my e-brake boot done in alcantara and torch red stitching and my leather panels done in the same stitch pattern as the seats and armrest.



Balmville Collision in Newburgh, NY did some paint work on the top for me and also painted the rear. The Corvette Shop in Montgomery, NY did the spoiler and fender work and Pauliewannafly is a member on here. All of the interior pieces are from Apsis. Thank you all for checking out the pictures.

I have them in another thread, but I will post more here when I get a chance. I have to run out now. Waiting to get the radio bezel back from Apsis which is getting done in carbon fiber. Once I get that in, I will be done for a little bit at least!.... I hope!

Thank you for the kind words guys. I have some terrible news to report though. Early Monday morning heading into work i lost control trying to avoid a deer on slick roads and the car is no more. I will be looking to sell what I can salvage.

Thank you, I am ok. 6 stitches under my lip, a bump and cut on the head and a stiff neck. I was on my way to work, the roads were very slick because it was misting, and I lost control around a turn after slightly braking and swerving to avoid an on coming deer. I am sure the 345s that I had just put on the back played a role because I don't think the 305s that I had on there lose traction in that situation. It sucks, I am really going to miss that car, but like everyone has said, I am still alive and ok. I will post up a thread with pictures, they are not pretty.

Sorry to hear, at least your OK, but really sucks you just had all that work done and didn't even get to enjoy.

Thanks guys I appreciate it. Yea it does suck. I guess I will be saving money for a while now. I loved that car and will miss it a lot. If I ever get another corvette, I figure it will be a C6 Z06 and I will put together a lot of the same things that I had on this one.

I've used the "deer" excuse as well.
