I ordered my Vert with the removable front end cover - I don't really like front end covers as to me they look kinda crass like a plastic cover on a sofa - I may change my mind if it looks really good, but I doubt it - So why did I order one? - For the month long trip my girl (wife)
http://www.bandmix.com/drzphd/ and I are taking (when I actually get my car) from southern Maryland across county out to SF down to LA to Las Vegas to NO and then back again to Maryland when she retires from US GAO later this year (I retired from US ICE in January) - We are visiting 2 dozen National Parks on our trip such as the Badlands, Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, Crater Lake, Yosemite, Zion, Bryce, Grand Canyon, etc, and we call this the Thelma and Louise Tribute Tour - Probably shall use the front end cover sparingly - Got the cover to protect my C7 mostly for any rough roads in the National Parks, and out west following good buddies in Jimmys hauling hogs
