Any ideas? I've not seen the number posted, but then I don't frequent the corvette forums.
TIA Steve |

Here's the site for the hood.
http://www.gmpartsdirect.com/results.cfm?a...number=10346713 Let's see, S&H = $150 and the total is $1,440. Then you have to pay for a paint job. At least another $400. Total about $1840. At a ten pound savings that's $184 per pound saved. I think I'd go on a diet first. A lot cheaper.

Well it'll weigh about the same when you factor in their million layer show car paint job and 50 coats of zaino. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
Sorry couldn't resist. |
