What a jerk. He should have used a diamond plate step bumper with a hitch.

Can't put a gun rack on the rear window because it's a vert.
Longhorns on the hood maybe?
Got me thinking.
Since your Vette is SGM, I'd suggest black for the brush guard so it'll stand out more!!
Why not add a roll bar and you could bolt your gun rack to that!!

I need to install side rollers so I don’t scrape the curb while I’m plowing...

Maybe a long gun scabbard or two from an ATV. You could duct tape them to the doors, one for you and one for whoever is riding "shotgun". And how about a continental kit for the spare tire that GM didn't include with the car? The possibilities are endless.

Bad Joke, Right? If not, ahhhh.......that ranks us as one of the ugliest "mods" I think, we've seen posted. Wonder if the owner is a CF Member and can tell us what he/she was thinking? I guess not, that would require someone to admit they own it.....
