TKDubya......I guess I'll be the party pooper.......I think your C7 looks great ...just like it is....I'll throw this out....we had a low rider pick up truck hit in the rear by a semi about 14 months ago. Pick up was totaled and kid hurt....the trucking company bought the salvage and had a professor testify in civil court that the tail light kit that was added, and the box said "for display or off road use only" and that 60% of the light was blocked and on a bright day (some testing he did) their truck driver couldnt see the pick up stopping......the jury didnt award a dime to the young man......just saying be careful...that NVT paint, and covering that disclaim "road use".......so just dont want to see a C7 owner get hit and someone skate cause you "murdered" your c7......just trying to inform and maybe keep ya alive- lets face it people don't see ya nowadays as it is......drugs/alcoho/texting....

Asptroopa1... I appreciate the description of the incident. I took a close look at those reflectors and they aren't really that bad considering what you just said. I've actually been a police officer myself for the past 22 years (3 years til retirement ) and you are absolutely right. Thanks for the reminder and thanks to everyone else for the kind words. I look forward to seeing your Vette's as they arrive so be sure to post photos.

Here are a few more photo's and I'm very sorry if they are still dark but I'm not much of a photographer.

Asptroopa1 - Thank you for your service. 37 years is a long time. Make sure you post some pics of your C7 when it arrives.

Still looks good!

The C7 looks great in every color, day or night... and even with a camera phone pic. Enjoy your CGM!

Wow, that CGM paint really looks different in different lights, but really looks fantastic with a little sun on it! Thanks for the extra pictures of your nice car.

Thank you! Honestly, I took it to the tint shop and asked him to tint it and thats how it came out. He did a really good job though.
