Default Cool Mods

I am so excited, I just got back from our local Corvette Clubs show at my local dealer and I saw a C6 (DSOM) with the coolest mods done by a company that did my 2000 C5 mods. They had put a screen in the grill and break outlets...LOOKED GREAT and "Jake" commented that he had noticed that the radiator had already gotten bent up from debris....so it had a functional purpose too. He also installs wheels and I am getting a set of SSR GT3 wheels with chrome outter rims and "mag" style spokes on my silver coupe. He is also putting on a new exhaust system with just dual pipes out of the back. He had pin striping on the car he had there which I didn't think I wanted until I saw it and WOW how it accents the lines on the side... they run from the back to the door ege and then pick up again at the front where the fender flare ends.... This is the "DELCO MONGOOSE" package that is available nationally.... everything from street mods to full blown racing set ups. I was thrilled with my C5 and got several thousand $ above retail when I sold it because of the mods. Now if I can just get the car here this week...... come on Allied!

That's funny Bud. I saw Jake's car at Carlisle and the NCM 10th Anniversary and did not like what he did, but I'm not much into mods anyway. I did like the color though.

Beware of Corvette Concepts. Not the best reputation in the Corvette community. Several bad transactions and questionable business practices reported here. I believe they were banned from the forum a few years ago.

Here's one example of their expert work as reported in the past. When tuning one customer's car, they used a G-Tech instead of a dyno to get before and after hp numbers.
