I like the combo euro and normal tail lights. Where did you pick those up? Also which front splitter is that?

Thanks, I got the lights from JW Motoring, vendor here on the forum, when I purchased the TigerShark rear fascia. The front splitter is the ACI 700 splitter.

You can it's just hard to get. I lucked out and the vendor was on its last gallons but because the company told them what it was for and it's going to a show they let me have the last couple of gallons left. I'm sure they have more now.

Right when I saw this Corvette I had the thought to post, "Yoooo Joe!" Cuz the car is very cool. But then I read your text. So sorry for your loss-our loss. God bless! And just awesome that you're tricking out a dedication to your bro.
