Off with the old ..on with the new !! In keeping with my current plan for CF accents (all vents ) I took off my Stage 1 RPI "Cyber Grey" colored side skirts and installed my new Carbon C7 (Z06 style) side skirts as well as replacing my corvette mods fuel rail covers with matching CF (matched plenum) RK Sport covers.
Waiting on replacement CF Side vents (one was damaged in shipping). Write up and pics on that project to come as well as new DSV boot/shift **** combo.

Default red accents

Red accemts look good without them being overly done.

BRAs should not be worn in public...hear that Madonna?

That would be TR Red my man right from rattle can . Bra does not stay on much only when I an heading out of town. My personal opinion of Expel is that I am not a big fan (though I respect anyones right to do it) If my front end gets to bad I will have it re shot no big deal.
Thanks for the nice comments aswith anything I post not sating what is right or wrong this is what makes me happy
