New Owner........Almost
Hello from London. I will be picking up my Grand Sport Collectors Edition when I get back to CT from a business trip in 9 days or so. I got the call from the dealership as I was driving to the airport on Friday afternoon that everything was all set for when I get back. That turned this 10 day trip into an eternity. I have been surfing the forum for issues to look for and ideas on what accessories to buy to kill time. There is a lot of great info on here for a Corvette newbie, thank you.
I got pricing on Xpel packages from the dealer, ordered a skid plate for the front splitter from ProTekt and will order some Weather Tech mats later. Last but not least, I learned on the forum that it looks like one of, if not the top Corvette Tech in the country, Paul Koemer, is only about an hour from my home.
Now I just hope most of the snow that is supposedly coming on Tuesday is melted and the roads aren't too sloppy for my 3hr drive from NH. Sorry for the long winded post.

Interesting dilemma. Try this...turn the original upside down and then post. Before you post you can review, change or delete. See if it turns upright on it's own. Or click Forums upper left and select Help, Help Forum. Then ask the Q why in future posts if not resolved by then.
Anyway you look at it , the car looks good.
