I took advantage of an actual sunny day here in Missouri and washed her up good, Unfortunately I found 3 gouges and a couple scratches in my spoiler. I guess I learned my work is not a safe zone!

I think this is the first American Car Craft Alternator cover done in Hydro Carbon Fiber. It really turned out well!

I finally got the Carbon Fiber Edition out of storage yesterday and was able to install it tonight.

Well, I painted up the wheels, the seats, and applied a CF decal to the targa panel:




Oh, and I did give big brother a quick bath so he would not be embarrased...

Received my new Lloyds mats yesterday. Made the mistake many have on this forum and purchased what I thought ware a dark gray ones, only to find out they were super light and did not match the interior carpet whatsoever. These new ones (ebony) are a much better match.

I got tired of people saying, "Oh another boring white Corvette." So I decided to gussy up my 5 year old Stingray. I like it and guess what, if you don't I really don't care. It's my car and that's all.

Fitted an exposed carbon top I purchased used from a fellow CF member. Polished it up. And, installed new latching handles locating pins to bring it up to latest spec. Kind of a crappy pic but I'm happy with the look.

Default Oil Change

Changed the oil using my new Quickjack yesterday today I am replacing my brake pads with dustless pads and if I get real ambitious I will change out the shifter for the short throw shifter I bought.
