This Purple-Haze Vette is actually just 2 blocks off my street here in Colorado. She has a C7 rear-window setup too, to make sure the visibility is worse.

I've never even noticed the C7 rear window...I can't get past the lights. What is wrong with it?

All kidding aside, I actually like the split window treatment. I have a convertible or I might look into that particular enhancement.

To each his own. Interesting car and I always love a split window. As long as you are paying for the mods out of your own pocket more power to you. Have fun and use your imagination! That said, I am an old school bone stock fan.

When I got my 2nd 100th GS, the owner had put a dash-mat on the 4LT (?!) Luckily he didn't glue it on.
