Default doing the mod thing again

So I started with Z06 front fenders, and liked them. The ZR1 came out and I fell in love with the front fenders. So here we go again painting fenders. I got a set of the corvette factory blemished fenders from Corvette Recyclers, vents and seals from gmpartshouse. I cant wait to get them on. Yes the 10lbs fenders are sitting on the old car for the picture.
