Default Hello from Colorado

Hey everyone! Never thought I would actually be a member here but I finally got my vette. Still seems like it is not real and a dream, but if this is a dream it sure is a good one!! I look forward to seeing what everyone does to their Vettes.

Just got the PPF and had too pull over in a Kohl’s parking lot to take a pic.

Welcome, Brian. That's a great choice and I like those wheels with the red trim on the lip. Love that beautiful first picture. Pulling over into a parking lot and taking pictures definitely brings back memories as I used to do that quite often. Hope you continue to enjoy your dream come true.
