There is no such thing. Go to the corvette forum and do a search its not that hard to do you can do it yourself for about $100.00 you might have to take the car to an interior shop to have the carpet streched over the larger wheel wells.But that shouldnt be over $50.00.

I've heard of MTI doing the installs too. If I remember correcly LG has a DIY (in a way) kit available too.

Let me do some hunting, but a friend of mine that had a computer tech site at one time posted an extremely detailed how-to on the tubs that him and a friend did.

hey guys got off the phone with Richey Collision, they seem to be recommended in their paint work. Taking it in on monday to see what they'll do but he's says it won't be more than $900 so most likely go with them.

You should be able to fit a 345 on the rear once you tub it. Look up the user "grond" on the corvette forum. He has a post where he installed his own mini tubs himself with no prior experience and they turned out really nice.

I forgot a cheap paint brush for the glass and 60 grit sandpaper so the glass will bond good..
