Ohhhhh....that will look KILLER! I figured that you guys would come up with something totally outside the box! :thumbsup:

Mark my words though, all of the "other" shops (Chip, Troy, Rodger, Chris, Ring Bros, etc.) will see this mod and start using your idea on their builds. :rolleyes:

As a non-Corvette purist... AWESOME.

Are you keeping the soft top available? I've been debating opening up my inner wheel wells because of proximity to the soft top boot.

Someone insinuated Good Guys. Is some or all of this gonna be out there? Was debating the trip - but that would pretty much wrap it up for me. :thumbsup:
