That was partly where I got the inspiration. Gotta love Bowling Green (never done the tour myself). Do you own a vette?

That was in my original plan for a long time, but believe it or not, I am digging the orange in the taillights.

AKL
I will post a pic of the front later in this thread. I wouldn't call red calipers poser, BUT it is really too common as almost every sports car has them

I like the idea to finish the bolts. I was just about order chrome wheel bolts. Better to save that money towards those adjustable rennline pedals ive been wanting
I was about to buy the chrome bolts also, but happened upon the diy thread. Saved me a cool $75-80.

Don't own one of the blue caliper Vettes but have respect and admiration for Vette history of 60 years and US sports car effort!The factory and the 100,000 square foot museum is worthy of your time if ever convenient for you.
