I think the spoiler looks great. I applaud your efforts. You will be the only person who will see the minor flaws. I just got back for the NCM in Bowling Green. It was very enjoyable trip and informative. I spoke with Shane at the museum and ordered my picture book on the build of my car. I finally got a TPW 10/24/22 on my corvette. Keep the videos coming.

You have to be really excited at this point. I still get excited just looking at mine 2 1/2 months after receiving it. Good for you George and thanks for the comments. Gary

Thank you so much for this video. I bought this spoiler but was reluctant to put it on because I didn't want to drill holes on the car. Now I'm going to put it on with the caulk

Don't apologize for "rambling ". I smile every time I watch one of your videos. I shared a couple of them with my 22 yo son to show him your turntable. Incredible! I'm on a SR waitlist and was planning on doing museum delivery but the video you did about the picture book changed my mind. I enjoy watching content from "real " people rather than professional KZbinrs. Just be you
@carsandwhatnotsenior42792 жыл бұрын
Thanks so much . Makes me feel good. maybe rethink the museum delivery. I'm hearing that they may be starting up the plant tours again and that may be included with the museum option. Book is still worth getting though.

It does look nice on the car and really kind of hides the 3rd brake light and doesn't disrupt the body lines of the car. You might really like it and if not it's removable without leaving holes

Painted body color will look good also. It will make the body lines flow even nicer I think. Either way, this piece should be on the option list and no holes in the bumper.

Looks good. I prefer some kind of spoiler to set off the vehicle color. Can't wait to get my own. I've been at #1 on the list at the same dealership you got yours from since august. Gotten the run around since then but Tony said I'm definitely 1st for November allocations(they skipped over me for last 2 months based upon parts without offering me a chance to adjust my build for what was available). Sucks I will likely have a December delivery.... just in time to put it away for the winter.

you know Ed, I really like the spoiler. Sort of hides without actually hiding the 3rd brake light. It's not a in your face type of spoiler but more subtle type. Don't notice any excessive dirt accumulation underneath. Racing stripes , hmmm, I would say whatever you like but I don't like the ones that go all the way down the front and back of the car. Crossing over the back Corvette letters--not a fan. How are you enjoying your car? Gary
