Default I gave in.....more Carbon Fiber (Update: 3/17/19)

Guys,

I finally gave in and purchased the full Carbon Fiber Z06 grill from Jersey at Apsis USA......I hope you like it!















And, to finish up the engine bay, I purchased the American Car Craft alternator cover from RPI Designs. I had them do it in Hydro Carbon Fiber....I was amazed at the results!!!!










I have some C7 crossed flags for the nose and tail. I'll hopefully get to adding those tomorrow is later this week!

Steven,

As great as this car looks in pictures, I can only imagine how incredible your Vette must look in person.

I especially like the emblems
I wonder if there a C7 out there with an all carbon fiber body?

Default All carbon fiber C7 body

IF there isn’t one yet, Steven will be the first!

Really like that CF grill application.

Yup, subtle but classy.

You are one sick puppy. Don't you know that all that carbon fiber has a kill date of June 1, 2019? When you wake up on June 2nd every single carbon fiber part will have turned into bright chrome.

Looking good, Steven. Perhaps some day I’ll get to see your ride in person.

You have an acute case of ‘carbon fibrosis’. I have the same affliction but it’s tempered by my wife. A very effective check on my ‘habit’
