Default Tigershark front facia... how much?

How much would you pay for this front facia? I have been offered a new one (unpainted) for $250 + probably $100 shipping. They list for $1062. Do you think its worth it?

If you can get it for that price in good condition, what are you waiting for? Even if you hated it, you can easily double your money by selling on corvetteforum.

I like the hood and the rear of that car, IMO I think the stock C5 front facia looks better.

thats a different front fascia than the one he's talking about
I think the 456-ish looking one, is more appealing

hmmm....I didn't even notice that...I figured they only made one Tiger Shark Corvette.

Either way I still think the stock style C5 front facia looks the best.

Looks like rice IMO. Too many random holes in the front end - too many hard lines mixed with soft ones.

looks like a 50/50 split. I like it and I think we all agreed that we should do all whatever we as individuals like. This is a showcar (but very quick also) so some bling should bring home the ching...
