As you can see below, I agree. I researched pretty extensively, and frankly would have preferred something a little more unique, but these are by far the best bang for the buck. You could check into something like Centerline's, but I don't really like them on Corvettes.

Nate @ Extreme what? I had a thread about the same thing a week ago. And everyone said, "nate @ extreme".

Well, no-one decided to tell me where that is, so I am asking finally. :-)
