Gonna look real slick Frankie!

Well I put color matched door handles on, instead of the black ones, does that count??

But seriously, desperately in need of rims this summer, still deciding which I like best though. Would also love to do a vararam, but my license plate will block the exterior opening for air. Wish they woulda thought about people who require a dang front plate!

Your sill plates look awsome. A Vette no matter what year is a rolling sculpture that is admired by its owner and the many that see it . It doesn't matter what others think as long as you appreciate what you have . Just my 2c worth. A wave to to my fellow Vette owner.

If you really did that, you would never go back to a 350! Torque is a drug, and I am an addict!!
