Strake's Carbon Fiber Edition Mods

The majority of the larger, exterior items came from AGM. that would be the new uninstalled yet center Front facia, front grill pieces, mirror caps, Rear diffuser, top camera cover and all the engine bay items. Also, the carbon fiber High Wing.

The front splitter and side skirts are genuine GM 5VM products and I bought from an online GM seller after GM removed it from my original factory order back in Jan 2020.

A few like the rear under glass hatch piece, as well as the A and B pillars and steering wheel came from APSIS.

The only odd ball items were the door handle/ boomerangs came from Performance Corvette in Orlando and the 2 side "7" shape vent pieces along the rear hatch came from RSC. The lower vertical diffuser fins are from Anderson Composites. Gas cap door was also an eBay item.

The majority of the interior carbon fiber trim items such as the side console pieces, mode control, E brake panel, waterfall and top speaker cover, door unlock buttons and several other small items came from JOGON2013 on eBay as well as the new lower mirror caps. A few other items inside were also from other eBay vendors.

100% of every item was installed here at my home by me, or with the help of my good friends Cliff and Jeff who also each own a C8.

One of the ebay vendors has a little stick on CF piece for the console release button if you're interested. I really like the CF trim you have on the bottom edge of the center tunnel. Thinking I'll do that one of these days!

Thanks ! I have the little button piece and it's installed now. Perhaps when I took the photo I hadn't bought that yet.

Got my new Carbon Fiber roof panel from Melrose T Tops last Thursday. Absolutely stunning quality and workmanship. VERY happy customer. What a pleasure working with Chris W.

Came with all the hardware. Just took out my red top and installed this beautiful carbon fiber top. No need to swap over anything.

He's now a supporting vendor here on MECF too !!!

Here's a few more Carbon Fiber Goodies I've recently added...... Upper and Lower Steering column trim with tilt button too.

And Carbon Fiber Door / Window trim set of 4 pieces...... 2 per side.

thanks for sharing.

Strake Are you coming down to ODCC's cruise in on Sunday? I'd like to see your car again (and you, LOL), but on the other hand, it might be cheaper for me in the long run if you don't.

[Strake]

^^^ to tell you the truth, I didn't realize it was coming up..... perhaps Bob M mentioned it to me and it slipped my mind. It's possible we could make it, but it would be heavily based on my wife's older sisters dire health situation...... and the weather. But it's now on my radar, so it's a possibility.

thanks for mentioning it to me. I just looked it up on your club website. Manassas is an easy ride down Rt 15 for us.

Today's long awaited addition...... my AGM Carbon Fiber Front Facia. I took it all apart yesterday afternoon, and today my good friends Cliff and Jeff came over for the actual removal, and swapping out the front center facia, vents, reinstall, etc.
