Default Vendors--how long?

Does not seem like the aftermarket accessory crowd has much for the C6--eg, bras, mats, etc. How long is the usual curve to start seeing this stuff?

There's already some out. You just have to hunt a little harder to find them. Remember that the plant was a little slow in getting production up to speed. Also, GM supposedly has a few aftermarket accessories.

The problem is that GM didn't allow anyone (pro race teams or big-name corvette aftermarket companies) early access to the C6. Everyone's only just recieved their C6...if they've even got it yet.

It took a good two to three years before there were many accessories for the C5. So I think they're coming pretty quick for the C6.
