Default Cup holder problem solution!!!!!

Hi Everyone. I was so frustrated with my C7 cup holder and unable to find one to use where i could close the opening lid, it forced my creativity to design my own! It came out so good that i decided to make them available to all my C7 Corvette family. Its called Stop Flop and is an expandable and retractable cup holder so when not in use simpley fold it down and close the lid. Consider your flopping days over!!! It attaches to the bottom of the cup opening with velcro, really cool design. You can get it on ebay item #233121609877 or just type in "C7 cup holder'. Check the reviews from 2 of the folks who bought them. Comes with the 650HP logo as well!



Cups retracted so the lid will close

I could be wrong, but I'm thinking the no logo version would be far more popular.

Cool idea. I am going to buy it. I hate the cup holders in my vette. It's a daily so kind of important.

The HP that is on it, decal or is it part of it (thinking the whole thing may be 3D printed)?

Mostly. Curious if you have to have one or the other, or if it could be blank? Or maybe some other design?

Very neat idea. Way too many cars w/ cup holders that do not fit various drink containers or are not tall enough to prevent tipping.

So you may have one blank one, which could be good. If that disappears am I out of luck, or is blank still possible?

And is custom printing something possible as well?
