2024 C7 of the Year Finalist - Modified

This is the one I installed on my 15 Z51. I like the flush 1 piece look. It hides the braces on the lid. There’s a few holes to drill, but it’s no big deal.

The trunk lid kit that comes in 5 pieces and is velcroed came in my first C7. The pieces would fall down frequently. Likely weren't installed correctly but even so, I'd opt for this one in my next one.

@BluRace Yeah, I heard someone call it Midnight and it stuck for some reason. I fell in love with the color though!!
It looks like you have Kalahari interior, mine is Brownstone. I think the deeper brown gives it such a rich luxurious feel (IMO).

NRB is a very nice color, but I really like the unique brownstone interior. Just enjoy it!

Default Skyline Drive - Perfect Fall ‘Vette Trip

Spent a little more than a week in our ‘17 Grand Sport driving through Virginia, DC, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Kentucky. We lucked into perfect fall weather to enjoy the gorgeous scenery. Drove about 2k miles and the ‘Vette was perfect. Top down every day. Driving the Skyline Drive along the top of the mountains from Waynesboro, Virginia up to Front Royal, Virginia was fabulous. We picked weekdays in late October and had almost no other traffic. Put it in 4th gear (M7), set the cruise to 34 MPH and didn’t touch the gas or brakes for miles and miles. The Grand Sport straightened out the curves - the pure joy of driving like it was meant to be!

"Skyline Drive - Perfect Fall ‘Vette Trip"

Tom 4x2:
Beautiful, beautiful car.

We agree with you on Skyline Drive. In good weather, a top down ride on that route is as close to magic as we have come.

We trudge on.

I will seriously consider the chrome!
