Got More Purple & Ride Stuff


Grape Ape

Recommended Posts

So, long story short, I was having issues with the rear spoiler staying down on the ends. In January I found another spoiler I'm really in love with. It's been another long journey but it's almost over now. Should have it back home midweek next week. I found a new, never installed Specter Werks fiber glass bumper and that's what's being installed now. I really like the looks of it and I won't have to worry about it coming up anymore.

Thanks, Tim. That thing should have been a factory option. I really like the looks of it.

Picking him up tomorrow....😃  😎👍

 

This was from yesterday, he was doing the final wet sand and polish on it. He sent me a text after it was all put together and said it really looks good. I even had new tail lights going in so I'm anxious to see what those look like as well as the new bumper cover.

Brought it home a little but ago. Really looks fantastic and they did a great job with it. Super happy with the way it looks on the car too.

 

It won't let me upload an image from my tablet so I'll go try on my computer.

Here's a few pictures after getting it home yesterday. I had them install new tail lights and 3rd brake light too. Now all the lights match the side marker ones I've had for a while and are from the same company with the same shade of tinted lense. Video of the process will be ready maybe tomorrow. No need to watch it but I will post it anyway.    🤔   😉👍

That looks really good!

Please post pictures after you decide which wheels you are going with.

I sure will. Might be a bit though as getting settled into the new place will have priority.

The more I see this new bumper cover the more I'm really loving the new look. The lights make it look pretty cool too.

Got the video done of the new Specter Werks rear bumper cover & lights being put on the car. Classic & their painter Michael did a great job with it. They actually did the whole car and it looks brand new again.

 

I think it looks fantastic. This will be my last video until I can get situated out east. Tearing my computer down for traveling in a box. Hope it survives....

My latest Grape video. I've had these lights since February and had Classic install them when they worked my bumper cover over. I like them and they go well with the rear side marker lights I had already installed. Now they have the same tint/smoke color and have the same laser light look to them.

Well, I couldn't pass these up. This is Gen 2 of these Vette-Lights rear tail lights for the C5. The other ones are that old but I like these better.

You know, that Cole character from VetteLights is always coming up with another product that I “have to have”. 
 

I like the horizontal  look Mark. Looks grape, I mean great.

 

I too thought my taillight days were over with the Morimoto ones I bought but now Cole is talking about doing the infinity tail lights that I really like, so guess I’ll be changing mine out also….:lol

I like the bottom photo solid lines, I believe you inquired about these also?

There was a guy trying to make those infinity lights for the C5's too. He moved and changed jobs so he dropped it as he didn't have the time to devote to them anymore. I love the infinity ones. I'd go for the solid line ones too.

Yes I remember him doing those and then having to quite. But Cole said he was going to release them around July thru VetteLights. Maybe they will cover the C5’s also?

I just realized something. On May 27, 2023, Grape turned 25 years young. I forgot to give him a party so I'll have to make it up to him. I did get him a gift though. New fuel rail covers with his name on them along with some REAL carbon tank covers.

 

🎂  🍻  🥳  HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GRAPE!  😈  ✌😎
