haha yeah, I absolutely hate having a front plate! at least this way there is a slight chance I can get away with it

My excuse "officer they kept stealing my custom plates so I had to protect it somehow"

Did you matte out the tail lights or is that just an illusion?

Nice pics !

Where I live if the plate is hidden in any way including dark tinted covers which obscures it in any fashion, then it is as bad as not having one, you still get ticketed.

I see you have the OEM Z06 rear quarter panel air vents as seen in your 3rd photo post#1.

Was this a DIY install?

If so, did you find it hard to remove the OEM Stingray vents and install the Z06 vents?

What method it you use to install?

Thanks in advance.

Piece of cake, it's easier with two people having one person pull the rear quarter panel back and hold it, this should get you started

It appears very nice. You'll need to take her often to the gym. I also see a bump coming out - new baby on the way?
