Looks like one of Eddie Valen's franken strat guitars. Might look cool on a guitar but not a C7.

Ruins the lines of the car. Looks like a grafetti artist got hold of it.

It's a display of modern art done on a Vette. I like it.

Hopefully it gets donated to charity or something like that now...
I also read that it's an Arctic White C7 and that the paint is washable/removable acrylic.

Meh, me thinks he owes a lot of credit to Eddie Van Halen.

What a train wreck. Some "artist" smears lumpy, dull paint stripes over a Corvette and they call it art. I should have been an artist. Anybody could do something like this. I hope he didn't get paid anything.

Fortunately, my driveway is an approved drop off point for all C7 chromies. Just drive up and leave them with or without tires. We'll waive the drop off fee if it's a matched set.

Beat me to the punch. I was gonna say somewhere Eddie Van Halen is calling his attorney for a cease and desist.

So nobody ever illustrates a vette with chrome wheels, right. For all you anti chrome guys there is proof that you are wrong.

There is no proof. Some folks love chrome, some do not. There is no right and wrong. My comment was also tounge-in-cheek. I have owned a C6 with Chrome Gumby's and I liked them.

They did the same thing to an Aventador or a Huracan.....not a big deal.
