Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO

The only issue I for see is if you don't paint them they will most likely develop surface rust. Doesn't matter if there stainless or not. Oh yeah I kick your ass when I am up there if there not painted. Haha

Dawg- There is no brightwork on my car except for my wheels. What you are seeing in the pics is my Z06 emblems above my side marker lights.

Joe- I HATE hood pins!!!!!!!!! lol


The surrounds will be getting painted when I get the car fixed again in a couple of weeks!
