I bought a 2017 Z06 a couple weeks back, but didnt notice the regional sub-forums until I had an interaction with Aaron, so thought I would come and say "HI". I am in the Bothell area and my car is currently undergoing a full car XPEL clear bra install and window tint, so I wont actually have it in my garage for about another week. I am also putting black vinyl wrap on the body color portion between the removable roof and rear window.
Here are a couple pics of it at the shop getting the clear bra installed:
Welcome to the local forum! I am sure we will see that great looking car at a meet somewhere. My car is wrapped with Expel as well and it sure gives you piece of mind when driving it.
If its ready by Saturday, some of the group is heading to Wenachee for a non-judged car show. Also, check out the Pacific Northwest Caravan Facebook page for information on the upcoming 2019 Caravan to Bowling Green.
Welcome. I'm sure we'll cross paths sooner or later. I live in Silver Lake and cruise through Mill Creek and Bothell often. I have a white C7Z. -Thomas

I'll keep my eyes open...
I have not seen many C7Z's, but ironically I pulled up next to someone in a black C7Z when picking up my car and driving it back to the dealership (did a dealer swap) and had a quick chat with him while stopped at a stop light. Only other one I have seen is a white C7Z that is parked in the same spot every day in the parking garage ay my work. I *think* I have seen some posts by someone on this forum that fits the criteria of being this cars owner, but havent asked (just in case it would come across weird).

Wow, that looks freakin' awesome! I'll consider doing my own vinyl wrap project as well but will probably seek some professional help from Gatorwraps.
1) Entire car has XPEL self healing clear bra
2) Windows are tinted with Prestige PhotoSync (believe I got 25; but its adapts.. Get lighter when darker outside and darker when more light hits the tint)
3) Windshield tinted with Prestige PhotoSync (50% but again, its adaptive)
4) Ceramic Pro applied on top of clear bra (entire car); include applications on wheels, brake calipers, windshield, glass, etc.
5) Took "Corvette" lettering off the back
6) Put black vinyl (with clear bra on top of that) on area between roof and back glass
The exposed carbon fiber has a ton more "depth" to it now; its way more noticeable and really looks sharp! Wife and I took the car out for a quick drive and grabber a few cell phone pictures while letting the car get up to temp:
Your car looks great! Definitely has a glow to it. Since you've owned a variety of cars, I'll be interested to hear your thoughts on the Z06.
All I know is my wife said she likes riding shotgun in my Z06 more than in my '08 Corvette coupe - rides better and the seats are more comfortable she said. That's a win all around.

My husband Ken had a '08 C6 and I agree his C7 is a lot more comfortable. And, we get more stares and thumbs up!!
