installation complete

I stoped by the shop and had the backbone installed last week. The installation went smooth with Mark doing the honors. The piece of SS looks so good its a shame to hide it under the car. Thanks Mark for taking good care of my 04 vert. and it now has a real backbone. Frank

To those of you thinking about getting the VNM Backbone plate, it's time to get off the fence! It works. It's a reasonable cost and the performance is justified! The exhaust studs could break when removing the H or X pipe (either from past work or ???) so have a few spare studs and nuts on hand. Then go out and enjoy your improved ride!!!

Mark installed mine at his shop in Montclair CA and I'm glad I made that choice - the stud thing would have bummed me out, but he anticipated it and took care of it pronto along with the rest of the installation.

More than a highly recommended mod - a necessary mod!
