Are you storing yours in your garage at home, or elsewhere, for the winter?

Center caps? So rice.

Final piece of chrome trim to be removed! Why they used so much chrome on the C7 is beyond me.

**Goat Blower** · 01-17-2017

Chrome=bling.

**Kracka** · 01-17-2017

The old dudes love it! It's pretty funny on the forum, all the older guys want the chrome wheels/trim/badges while the younger ones all want the black/carbon flash.

Looking good! But you know me I am anti chrome!

Can't argue with that!

I'm with Rosey on the anti-chrome.

Looks good as always!

**Goat Blower** · 01-18-2017

I guess I'm still young, I swapped out my chrome lug nuts for black last fall.

At heart...

Pretty cool there are 3 Corvette built threads all on the 1st page of the Project Talk section! C5, C6, and C7 all being represented. Anyway...

This morning I decided to spend an hour in the garage to install the Z06 stage 1 front splitter. From the factory they are a dark gray plastic, but this one was painted in Carbon Flash Metallic to match the grille, badges, hood vent, etc. The install wasn't too bad; time consuming more than anything. It reused 12 existing bolts, then I had to drill holes for an additional 10 rivets (thank you trusty $5 Harbor Freight rivet gun!). Some guys aren't doing the rivets, but I figured I would go for the full OEM installation since it is an aero part and sees pretty good forces at speed.

Up next, another day, will be the ACS Zero1 sideskirts to complete the look!

**Goat Blower** · 02-20-2017

Nice! I'll have to buy this from you when you jump to the next platform. Coming full circle so to speak.

**Kracka** · 02-20-2017

HA! Deal!

rose0529 · 02-21-2017

Looks nice! still think you should have had a beer to complete your presidents day modding.

A//// Guy · 02-21-2017

I agree, picture is rather empty haha, looks good! That lip is subtle yet nice.

Prez Day fail

I did find a fun old timey beer garden in the middle of no where while out for a roofless cruise on Saturday that I stopped in at for a few Coors Banquets. Does that count for anything?

Thank you! I do agree. I think the Z06 Stage 2, and especially Stage 3, splitters are too over-the-top for a street car.

**Kracka** · 02-23-2017

The car left my driveway for the first time all week this morning and I have good news to report, the splitter clears my apron! I was a little concerned about this, as I did not want to have to raise the suspension.
