Very nice! Normally I haven't liked the tiger shark kit, but they flow with your car well.

That was kind of my motivation. Actually the Tiger shark kit is pretty rare and they do not make them anymore. GM actually had a concept car back in early 2000 that they were going to release to the public, but it never came to fruition.

I noticed in your Avatar that you have your location as Chicago/Va Beach Va... As well as your little sailor girl... My oldest son is in the Navy and stationed at Va Beach... He currently serves on the USS Anzio... I am retired Army... come on out next weekend... Myself and about 5-6 of my Vette buddies will be making the cruise...

Looks great. I love the TS front bumper over the stock c5 one. Where did you buy the pieces from?

Thanks... as you know they stopped making the TS pieces years ago... GM actually produced a few concept cars back in the early 2000's... StarCraft took the design from GM and only made so many kits...

I purchased this kit from a guy in Rowlett who just moved here from Fla. He was turning his C5Z into a Road race car and did not want to dick up the TS kit.. So to answer your question I lucked out and purchased it locally. Love the look, and can tell you that it is unlikely you will se another around with it.. Thanks again...
