Default New door pull wraps!

Yep, "Finish line" wraps installed today, still waiting on the passenger side dash grab handle cause it's on back order.

They look great!! The dash grab handle will totally complete the look.

I've been looking into some Vette Essentials door pulls.....

Wow!

Sorry, that was my first reaction. However, your interior does look great. I'd love to see it in person.

Thanks! Sitting in it feels like it did when I was a kid in a candy store. The color and all the neat stuff just makes the car awesome.

I have a serious question here.

How many of you guys call Import cars rice? Ill be the first to say I don't like it. It takes away from the beauty of the car IMHO.

Don't ask for opinions and post it in a public forum if you can't expect negative feedback.

You have a checkered flag running down the center of your Corvette. I think its tacky along with the fuzzy dice. This is a classy car and now it looks like a 22 year old Import racer got a hold of it.

Someones upset because someone doesn't like their car.

I'm sorry I hurt your feels chap. Don't change the fact that IMHO it looks like a 19 year old Civic owner designed your interior and engine bay. My opinion. Don't want it, don't post it on a public forum and then get mad when someone doesn't bow down to you. It looks like crap IMHO and I watch people on here bash Civics for the same thing all the time. You have maggie bump on your hood do you have a maggie or is that just for show?

Get over I don't like it, my opinion. Don't like it. Tough thats life.

We all have differences in our cars but the beauty is that we share a passion for Corvettes and this passion brings out our inner child and make us grin inside. Learning to respect differences in taste and opinion, and not always feel inclined to voice our differences, is something that takes age and experience for most of us to learn.

I enjoy seeing the amount of pride that Rick and others have in their car. It makes me enjoy my car all the more. That is what it's all about

Yeah but its hypocritical for the same people to sit around and talk crap about imports when you guys are doing the same thing.

Again how am I an assclown for saying I don't like it and someone getting butthurt. If you are going to make your car stand out like a sore thumb you have to be ready for negative and positive comments.

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-g...ht-decals.html

Funny how everyone is talking crap about this guys tail lights and everyone is fine with that. Probably because this is some popular member etc. I don't care ugly is ugly in my opinion. You got the passion congrats. It looks bad my opinion don't like it, ignore me, or don't post on a public forum.

Age and experience to learn what? So when you get older you no longer say you don't like things? This place is full of grumpy old men give me a break.
