Anymore photos of this car running around?!

Here is a few of my 07. I get lots of compliments on the stripes all the time. The white and metallic gray pop on the LMB paint.MINE ARE DECALS WHICH NOONE NOTICES (can you tell in pics ? Most cant tell in person) AND IF I GET TIRED OF THEM, TAKES ABOUT 20 MINUTES TO TAKE THEM OFF. It cost me 189 dollars and I did it myself in two hours. I picked colors and it was easy to do. If you paint them, you better hope you L O V E them or it will cost a load to switch back. I can only speculate that it would hurt resale to have them permanantly painted on too. Just a thought.

A lot of people seem to like the corvette letters on the hood. Notice the entire front windshield is tinted which I think adds to the look of the car and yes I can see out perfectly at night and havent ever been pulled over for it.Take care.

This is the one for me. I have a black vert, and would get yellow stripes.
