Looks great! I'm ordering this week.
Looks great H2OStingray!!! :D

Here is my emblems dipped. 5 coats black 3 coats gloss. I also took off the "corvette." I already order my stinger stripe from vettefx with supercharged on it just have to wait to get the procharger installed before I put that on.
Hey H2OStingray,

I plasti-dipped my emblems black with gloss as Suzy_Cruisy mentioned. It came out pretty good on my first attempt. I also did the chrome strip on the grill. I went with 5 coats of black plasti-dip and 5 coats of glossifier.

The grille looks great but I don't understand this plasti-dip. What does it feel like on that chrome bar and can you wipe it off? Will bugs stick to it? Thanks

Yes bugs will stick to it just like any other part of the car. I just wash them off without any plastic dip damage. Note: I only did 3 coats and no glossifier and it's been on for months now.
Yeah bugs do stick to it but you can clean it off like normal.

When you did the chrome bar in the grille, did you take it off or cover up the grille and paint the bar? Is the glossifier(is that the correct name?) used just for the plastydip?
Both links I tried my AV tells me a threat has been detected? Just sayin to you all....
I just masked off the grill with newspaper with only the chrome strip exposed. Then sprayed 5 coats of black plasti-dip and 5 coats of plasti-dip glossifier.

I believe the glossifier is only meant for plasti-dip. Never tried it for anything else.

That Evo forum probably knows you have a C7 :p

Haha I'm just kidding but thanks for the heads up.
