Just a bath in preps for the 1st real road-trip (about 1100 mile round trip) the end of this week!
I did spring for and install the seat-belt "guards" to stop the damn things from coming out of the guides on the seats, along with installing some felt in the cup holders to stop the coffee from tipping over under acceleration. The HP and torque just isn't for civilized commuting...
I've always been a bit confused over all the spoiler choices. I have the smaller spoiler that goes right across the whole rear on my '16 - are you referring to that as the Dar spoiler?
I was thinking of going with the little spoiler that you show in one pic where it only covers below the rear window - I think it really highlights the lines of the rear of the car.
Thanks for the posting.
The small spoiler you see in the picture with the blue tape is what it came with stock in 14'. I added the spoiler that goes across the whole back end which I purchased it from DAR. It just seemed to be a bit bare so I added the full width spoiler which is more appealing to me and seems to add to the stance of the car IMO. I really enjoy getting a chance to see everybody's individual style choice. That to me is what makes this site fun, plus I get a lot of ideas for myself.
The removal process is fairly straight forward. It's a little tricky getting the front positioned correctly when re-installing. I recommend getting a second set of hands to help. Need to be sure all the tabs are lined up and in the correct slots before applying pressure. I bent one of my tabs because I did not have help. Luckily it straightened out without breaking off.
Thank you! I am definitely getting a second set of hands for this project.
Sorry about that! It's been really dry here in this part of Canada, I took mine out to Walmart this morning, even though it was still below the freezing mark at the time (it's now closer to 50)
I got mine out Friday for an hour, Saturday in the late afternoon/early evening, and Sunday for most of the day after lunch.
However it's getting colder again. Might see it in 10 days, more snow this week!!!! BOO.
I took advantage of the warm weekend weather (almost 45 degrees yesterday!) and installed jacking pucks, side skirts, front splitter and the enhanced splash guards. After a CAREFUL two or three mile drive, it's back inside, covered, waiting for spring.
Listened to the weather forecast and they're predicting one inch of sleet mixed with rain tomorrow followed by 5-8 inches of snow the next day. So what did I do to my Corvette today ? I went out to the garage, took the cover off to have a look at her, shook my head in disgust then proceeded to put the cover back on and went back in the house.
Thanks for asking though

Took my daughter for a ride. She's only 7 and pretty easy to scare, so I started off waaaay too slow and worked my way up to speed limits. It wasn't long before she was saying, "Faster, Dad!" Now that I had her permission to goose it, I gladly did, which generated tons of laughing and giggling, and she really enjoyed the ride. As much as she enjoyed it, I enjoyed the ride soooo much more.

Scooby You must be near me on East Coast (MD) same forecast. I did take her out yesterday for a little spirited driving since she has been sitting under cover for the last few weeks! At least I have been able to complete some of my mods adding new carbon flash poverty splitter and ACS side skirts, replaced all emblems with Carbon flash ones and just added my Borla XPipe last Saturday. I had to take her out to hear the new pipes!

Gorgeous day in the PNW so after detailing it, I took my Little Blue Vette out for a totally unnecessary ride. On the way back, I stopped at the Griot's flagship store in Tacoma for some supplies...

I had an appointment with Terminix yesterday afternoon, and was long overdue for getting the inside of the garage serviced.
So I had to clear the garage out a bit, including pulling my C7 out of the driveway. While that may not seem like a big deal, I had to take the car cover off for the 2018 season. Getting very close, but once MLB Opening Day weekend hits, all bets are off...and it'll be on the road whenever weather permits
