Default Vanity Plate Craze

Hi

My plate was for a Porsche 911 Turbo but with our weak economy l will put it off for a couple of years.

The Vette is fine with no excuses and since l always had one another couple of years will not matter.

I've never been a fan of it. It just looks unfinished to me.

I love the carbon fiber. It looks so good on my crystal red metallic. I have the carbon fiber ZR1 hood that Pete sells on here. It looks so nice I don't want to put any paint on it. I get tons of compliments. Have you seen the October issue of Corvette magazine? It features Nowicki's concept 7 car with the CF aero package. He was the former owner of specter werkes/sports before they went OOB. I wish he would produce the CF wheel fender flare extensions. The would be an awesome edition to my CF rear spoiler, front splitter, side skirts, A pillars, Halo, roof panel and B pillar with dual instrument pods...I may have missed a couple of areas .

I have to admit it looks awesome on your Crystal Red ride.
