Tigershark Kit Discontinued??
I'm curious if anyone knows or can confirm if all the Tigershark body panels have been discontinued? I recently noticed that the TS hood has been. A great looking hood, imo.
I've been planning to purchase a new TS front bumper for my Z in the next few months. But I'm not sure if buying a new one will be possible.

Might give west coast corvette a call since they sell the hood.

Oh no. Now I'll never be able to make my American sports car look Japanese.
edit: looks like this wasn't an announcement, and they are actually being made still.
In that case: good news! Everyone can make their American sports cars look like imports!

I remember seeing a Tigershark Z06 on Jay Leno's Garage. At the time I didn't know that it was a Tigershark.
All I knew as a design professional, was that it was beautiful and well integrated into the C5 design ethos.
The Tigershark is far and away from a typical "body kit".

Hopefully they keep making it. I love the look of the kit. it looks OEM.

The tiger shark front combined with the RK sport rear is a great match up. JMO. So far, I am the only one I have seen that has done this.

I thought I read that one of the C5 designers had a hand in the Tigershark kit. Anyway, if you are going to change up the C5 body (which is awesome by itself) - the Tigershark front end is one of the best looking IMO.Good luck with whatever you do OP!

IMO, one, if not the, best C5 Corvettes out there.
