Installed new sun visors (the ones from goverment motors are filled with cardboard!)  Not a good plan for a convertible at least.  They did last almost 18 years though  :-)

 

Picked up a set constructed by hand by Al Knoch interiors that seem to be a much better design and utilize the factory lighted mirror and fresh hardware.  They were asking $229 for the pair but a big sign said they match all prices.  I let them know the GM knock offs were $180 at Corvette America a few tents down and they guy said his were now on sale for $175!  Better product IMHO.   Installed easily, about a 45 minute project start to finish including clean up.

 

Picked up a 3 piece set of made in China plastic chin spoiler assembly from Corvette America for $35.  I was a bit skeptical but the fit and finish was as good as factory and of course significantly cheaper.  About an hour job re-using factory hardware and metal braces from the original install. 

Take your time and watch how things come off and the re-assembly is a snap.  TIP:  DO NOT  final tighten anything until all is assmebled on the car, then tighten at the end aligning things so they look perfect.

 

also picked up a convertible top clean and dress kit in a bag from a small vendor fronm New Jersey.  I was somewhat concerned about this stuff being "snake oil" ($26.95 for the kit) but after having used the cleaner part I am now a believer. I had some oil stains on the top that I had tried almost every household cleaner and laundry degreaser known to man on without success.  This stuff did the trick, just follow the directions and let it sit for 10-15 minutes after a light brushing and wham-o, no more grease spots!

 

Headed to fun fest in Effingham, Il. the middle of the month, can't wait!

 

BTW, the Vette was flawless on the 1100 mile round trip.
