Hey, I got brought a c6 base model. I was hesitant to buy a side skirt because I thought it was for z06, zl1 cuz they are much wider. So thank you for sharing that your vette is also a base model. Thank you 🙏

I have a 2 car garage and put a 12000 btu wall unit - keeps it really cool. Get one!!!! Thanks for the video buddy! And about the 3m tape - that stuff bonds incredibly strong if applied right. It DOES take 24 hours for it to fully cure. But I would go out with the screws too - the tape will cure later. lol

My garage has no windows. Just 2 doors and the 2 garage doors. If it had a window, the AC unit would have been installed and used. I promise. I got quoted $5000 just to make 2 holes and install 2 windows. So I passed on that. The double-sided tape they included was a generic brand, not real 3M. Also, it is only 1/4 inch wide, so not much grip area. I know real 3M 3/4 inch is very strong. It holds my rear spoiler on and it is used on Mercedes and BMW.

@@midlifecrisis1979 I put my ac unit through the side door - reinforced the door with piece of 3/4" plywood same side as door with lag bolts and then cut a hole for the ac and fashioned a bracket to secure it. Could poke a hole in the wall too.

@Teramydog I will eventually put a mini split that does heat and A/C. Just got to slow down with spending right now. I'm having windows added to the garage doors and changed the side door to an all glass door so more light comes into the garage. Later the mini split.

I have the same car With the tan top. Was wondering how the gloss black turned out on the overall appearance?

@midlifecrisis1979 3 ай бұрын

The gloss black really popped great. I loved it.

Thanks for the video. What size nuts and bolt did you buy to attach the mud flap to the side skirt?

@midlifecrisis1979 5 ай бұрын

They were cap head 3mm Allen head. Only need them to be 2mm-3mm thick and at least 10mm long. Your local hardware store can help. I suggest you bring the mud flap part to make sure the screws fit thru the hole on the flap.
