LOVE the Tiger Shark!! I'm not gonna lie, every time I go through one of m catalogs, I stare at the Tiger Shark parts and am so tempted to do it, but I just can't get myself to mess with the stock look. But if I was ever going to modify my 'vette, that's what I'd do!
I really like the stock look of Corvettes too. Since GM made a Tigershark with a supercharged 427 in 2002 and a White Shark I felt it was within the limits of what I wanted to do. I feel it is very important to maintain the integrity of the Corvette when modifying the body. There is now a company in California that makes a fiberglass Front and rear Tigershark kit for around $250.00 or so for each part. I also put the ZO6 brake vents in and have saved the stock panels. It would take a day or two to turn my Vette back to the stock look. The C5 is a great platform and a great car to make your own if that is what you like. The only thing I stepped out of the Box I put myself in are the Lewis Five Motorsports rear 1/4 Panels. They are modeled after the C6ZO6 and are a real quality part and setup. Scott the owner has made a great product and also an enthusiast. The lewis Five rear fenders look as if they were designed by Chevy for the C5 and are affordable. Scott the owner also has some very cool Corvettes on his web site "www.lewisfivemotorsports.com" Check out some of the Vettes on their site. A great site for ideas! But you are right, it was a difficult choice.
But thanks again, It is alway nice too hear and receive compliments from fellow enthusiast. Those compliments are the ones that mean the most.
