No, our cars were made before that update came out. You'll read mixed reviews about it. I had it done on mine, personally I don't notice a difference, it was wasted money. But others have reported being very happy with it. May have a lot of factors though to determine if it is an improvement for you I guess.

Congrats on the trophy #511, and I love all the mods you did! Gotta' ask what you used on the center wheel caps--did you take them off and have them painted or do it by hand on the car? What did you use for color (pen, paint, color code??)? Mike #579 Las Vegas

Anyone have problems with a Vendor C7 Carbon Fiber?
I'm getting either "delayed" or lied to? Just like my experience
with Southern Car Parts (a 96 day wait for a $ 800. CF Part
that I canceled and got the same part from someone else in 8 days...)
This time with C7 Fiber, I order $ 570. CF part, was told 3-4 weeks.
I call after 2 1/2 weeks just for an update, was told another 2 weeks.
I call AGAIN and was told ANOTHER 2 weeks, so what was 3-4
is now 6 1/2 weeks and no definitive ship date. How do these people
stay in BIZ?
These parts would fit ALL 2014-2018 C7's ...

I feel your frustration. There are unfortunately a lot of aftermarket corvette vendors that prey on our passion for our cars. Another vendor to be wary of Corvette Mods, who was once a vendor on this site but has since been banned. Look at reviews & always check this forum concerning vendors.

Yeah drove with the compartment empty, screen up, screen down, AC off, AC on, windows down, windows up, top on, top off. Tried it all. Can't figure it out but it sounds like its coming from behind the steering wheel

GS511

I heard grinding noise just before coming to stop . I asked local dealer to check brakes. Not brakes after all.!

The plastic ring (Flags) that came with car wheel caps popLost. ped off! So I decided to recome the last two remaining and because the wheel caps had an indentation for the rinds/flags... I found these decal stickers online and thought.. lets try um out. Glad I did and easy to apply. corvettemods.com

I'm wondering how many of us with the GSCE have experienced a problem with our wheels? I believe I have a cracked rim as the left rear tire will not hold air and after close inspection of the tire's surface, there is nothing showing such as a nail or screw.

I took the tire down to Discount Tire's thinking I had a puncture or bad bead seal. They found the inside tire surface had a gouge the size the tip of my little finger. Strange thing with this gouge is that it isn't around the entire surface of the tire. I find nothing that would have caused the gouging. Unfortunately because the gouge wore into the tire exposing the cords, they said they couldn't work on the tire. So I've ordered a new set of A/S+3.

Now I'm thinking I need to run the tire and wheel back down to see if the wheels is cracked or bent. Anyone else experience a cracked or bent wheel? If so, what type of wheel did you replace it with and where did you purchase the new wheels from. I only ask as I'm not having any luck finding wheels to fit the size on our cars. Thanks for any input.

There are a lot of reports of issues with wheels in this forum. There is also a class action lawsuit that has started up that I saw a post on. So not too surprising unfortunately. I'm happy I bought the tire and whee warranty but also happy that so far I haven't had an issue. Many seem to find it when they get new tires, which I haven't had to do yet.

Saw these wheels posted in a C7 Facebook group, could be a nice option on a GSCE.

Not all Watkins Glen Gray (WGG) 2017 GS' are collectors editions. WGG was the most popular color made that year from what I recall.

So if you are looking for just that color GS then you should have quite a few out there to look at.

If you are a big fan of WGG with the Tension Blue accents it narrows your options quite a bit. Especially in a M7.

You can put those colors in after the fact. Someone recently did that and discussed it here in this thread.

If you are looking for a GSCE there is a spreadsheet listed in the first post of this thread that has some used listings there. Not all of them bu a pretty good number of them.

I was wondering how long it would be b / 4 someone built a look-a-like. lots to choose from. The 09 GT-1, Carbon65, GSCollector - been done, then the other years,2013 editions, and others. I think it would be cheaper to have a real what ever year you want. I see the Novas, Chevells, and about every thing get changed into something else. Even taking a 57 4 door Chev and making it a 2 door. I guess MOM was right - where there is a will, there is a way. Yo - HAPPY MOTHERS DAY..................go hug yr mom if you can.

I've had a 2014, 2015 Z51 and now the 2017 GSCE. I have purchased carbon fiber from these guys before and nothing but headaches. Apparently the products are made in Mexico and they wait until they get a full order. Always much later than promised and I've had to send things back because they didn't fit. I even ordered through a reputable vendor who in turn order from C7 - same issue.

Those wheels are absolutely amazing - would be a great addition to my pieced together collectors edition wannabe car. Just got the car wrapped in more of a matte/satin finish WGG look alike and the top in crystal black - gloss black/with blue specs. I'll attach pics when the car is done...see if anyone can tell the difference. DIY (exterior and interior tension blue parts) saved me roughly 12-15 grand vs over-priced factory additions. If I ever sell it (what an awful thought), highly doubt it not being a true collectors edition will make any difference in sales price.

Always been a big fan of buying base with just the wanted internal parts you cant replicate -without tearing the car apart- and adding cosmetics after.

The first post in this thread has a link to the "registry" which is a Google spreadsheet. Go to that link (also listed below). At the bottom of that page there is a tab for used items. I'm actually hoping to go through that by the end of this weekend and update, I think I have a one or two to adjust/add.
