Step 3: Grab the digicam, you're done.

Good Grief! Get the barf bags ready.

Owning a new Corvette makes a statement about the owner. I like the image and what it says.
Owning a new Corvette and doing this to it makes a very different statement about the owner. I most likely would want nothing to do with the person or his buddies. It's a matter of taste.
It used to be that people who could afford a new vette had the class and sense to leave it pretty much alone. Perhaps a few tasteful trim items here and there etc.
This display is tasteless and degrades the car to a level fit to be seen on the third installment of Fast and Furious movies. I think it will be called "keeping up with the ricers".
The owner of this car need ground effects lighting, a huge wing out back, screens over the headlights and grill, and huge exhaust tips...for a start. Oh, I almost forgot....spinners on the wheels too.
Puke, cry, rant, pray? Different vette owners might react in some or all of these ways to this display. A few might actually like it. I find it sickening.
And that's just my opinion so if it's different from your that's fine too. If the owner of a new vette wants to do this to his C6 well and good. Please just do not expect the majority of vette owners to stand and applaud. What on earth would this prove or accomplish? I guess I just don't belong to the subculture that likes this stuff. I know I don't.

I wonder
Is that legal? Didn't Congress pass the "1997 Don't Screw up Your Corvette Act"? I am pretty sure that is a felony and might even be treason.
I also completely agree with OregonC6 I can tell you by just looking at this Vette he is not the kind of guy I would sit down to have a beer with and discuss the world. Unless I was already drunk and at least for a few hours he would be my best friend. " I love you man, you rock."
EuroRod LOL on the group effort comment. Nicely done
