I noticed you did not do your vents.  Was this simply a cost and timing issue or would those items not be able to be treated?

For those who wish to keep the origional look I'll pass on my experience. I needed to replace the shifter consol surround on my '96 LT4 and looked through many of the Corvette supplier catalogs. Eckler's listed the part but when I called to inquire I was told it was plain black plastic without the "soft touch" coating. Corvette Central listed the part as discontinued so I called to make sure and was told the did have the part and they had spent two years getting the coating correct. It's part #234328 for 94-96 and costs 149.95. It is an excellent match. Dave

I know I'm five years late on this, but can someone PM the company that does this work?

I could be wrong, but this looks like normal Hydro Dipping.  It is getting really popular around here now.  I have seen people get guns, Rims and just about everything you can imagine dipped with this coating.  It is very durable (just as good as paint).  If you have a facebook page, here is a friend of mine who does this sort of thing.  He has done a ton of stuff for cars. https://www.facebook.com/Boneheadcoatingsok  I am getting my Strut Tower Brace done (100.00), my Fuse Box Panel (75.00) and my lid for my supercharger (200.00) done on my ZL1 Camaro.  Just an example of his prices.  I am sure if you looks for Hydro Dipping in your area, you would be able to find someone that does it locally and can get it done fast for you.  I would suggest that you go and have a look at some of the stuff they have done and see if you can find some reviews on their business before you spend the money.  As with Paint, not all painters are created equal and the same can be said for people who do these coatings.  I am not sure if the clear coat is something that they all do after, but you can ask them if they do and make sure that you get yours coated as well.  Good luck with it guys and gals!  Ohh and BTW, the job that they did on your pieces look amazing!
