Way to go, Steve. I have come up with a name for the disease.... Carbon Fibrosis. The doc tells me it is very contagious and there is just one cure....

Has anyone found the carbon film that is an exact or close enough match to the C7? I've done a few DIY dips and it isn't difficult, but nailing the exact pattern that GM uses based on online pictures is difficult.

I finished up the mods to the Carbon Fiber Edition.
I removed the OEM chrome Crossed Flag and replaced them with these.....
I also did the Crossed Flags on the tail, but decided to leave off the "Corvette" script. What's your opinion...."Corvette" script or no scripts?
