C7 Corvette

Hello,

  Started working on the front splitter and rocker moldings  ground effects.  These are popular options on C7 Stingrays and something I'd definitely get if I had my own.  
Just a minor tweak and a light sanding before final color coat and installation.

Hello,

The challenges of Factory Stock...

  No more Mr. Nice guy.  This was supposed to be a quick snapper to get me out of the 9 year slump. But... I'm a sucker for brakes and calipers. Hey, I've never claimed to be normal! I could not find suitable brakes for this project.  So I machined my own rotors and slotted them.

But I searched high and low for calipers that would look at least close to the factory ones and decided I'd do my own.  So using pictures of the real thing,  I did them in layers. It is like manual 3D printing :)     So each caliper is made of 3 parts.

I  have to print my own decals for the logos. I'm working on that.

Thanks,
