Default Is This Chrome Wrap C7 Corvette Pretty Cool, or Just a Bit Too Much?


We need your opinion on this Z06, and the satin finish, red chrome wrap is just the beginning of what's debatable about it.

Looks like something Justin Beiber would own. Take what you want from that.

The wrap on its own is fine. trying to go back to 1955 with the appearance of Whitewall tires and white trim, not so much.

I think the whole look is terrible. I really don't know where to start!

Really? Why does a CorvetteForum Editor start a thread to make fun of a Corvette? What if the owner is a member here?

Like to know some background on the individual that owns the vehicle. It is not my cup of tea, but they must really like the mods.

I'm not a big fan of the doors, but otherwise, I'd love to see this at the car show.

Ditto. Take away the white accents and sidewalls and maybe ok. Plus, there's a much better way to go back to 1955, a DeLorean at 88 mph.
