So this isn't really a "build" thread so to say, but is probably the best place to put the "stuff" I'm going to be doing. My Laguna Blue is anticipated to be here within the next couple of weeks, so I've already started ordering and compiling my "stuff". When I told the wife I was ordering some stuff for the new Vette, she was like, "Why does a new car with all of the options require you to order anything?" I think it was more of a rhetorical question, as we have been married going on 36 years now, so she already knows what I do to all of my cars.
Anyway, so far I have ordered and received a Curb Alert Mini system and the GM front and rear splash guards. I ordered a CAGS Eliminator, some stay in place jacking pucks, and 10 feet of bulk 4" Xpel. I also called my tint guy and made an appointment for June 6th to get 35% all the way around. (the legal limit in NC) I still need to order my Granatelli Nose Savers, a Filter Mag and my Blackfire products. The wife and I have a cabin reserved in the Tennessee Pigeon Forge area the second week of June, so I want it all on the car before we make the trip. We are SO looking forward to the cabin, and now we get to make the trip in the new Corvette, so we are REALLY stoked.
Plans for later in the year and next spring include some custom airbrushing under the hood (liner, engine components and accessory covers)and in the hatch area, some blue Granatelli ignition wires and a new Brownstone rear cargo mat with flags and "Stingray" lettering. I'll update with pics as they become available. A special thanks to Glen E, Mobius, John E and others that have helped me in some way on this exciting journey!
