The Corvette was and still is a highly customizable car when talking about aesthetics and most of the Corvettes have wraps on them of different designs, that’s what makes them so unique.
We’ve observed the midship Corvette with matte paint and all that jazz, but Rick Dyer took everything one step beyond including his C8. His second mid-engine Corvette, to be more accurate, and it certainly looks unlike a Skittles ad with an LT2 small-block V8 outback.
Posted on the C8 Corvette Owners Facebook group, the following pictures have also brought a lot of negative reactions. Beauty may be in the eyes of the observer, but at the end of the day, Rick earns a fair share of marks for authenticity.
The sports car’s modification also has a fair bit of Austin Powers and Woodstock 1969 to it, and overall, this midship Corvette won’t go overlooked. Even the detachable hardtop has been wrapped, now emphasizing blue, purple, yellow, and a pinch of black.
Based on the photos uploaded on social media, Rick’s drug-like Corvette looks to be a Z51 Performance Package with the black exterior. This shade option comes at no additional cost, regardless of the Corvette’s trim level or body style.
At the moment of writing, only four finishes are listed under the “premium” title by the configurator. These are Accelerate Yellow Metallic and Rapid Blue at $500 as well as Long Beach Red Metallic Tintcoat and Sebring Orange Tintcoat at $995.
Turning our awareness back to wraps, did you know there’s a C8 with a Captain America exterior? Owned by Michael Brink – a.k.a. Brink of Speed on YouTube – that car has also proven itself on the dyno with 440 horsepower and 580 Nm of torque at the rear wheels. Roughly 10 percent lower than the crankshaft figures, these estimates are mostly impressive for a production car.
Another owner, David Savage, gave the engine hood of his C8 an all-custom devoted wrap. With the help of an airbrush expert, the impressionable cover of his LT2 now sports the Red, White, and Blue along with no fewer than 10 five-pointed stars.
Proceeding forward, it’s evident that we’ll see much more unique C8s given that more cars are going to their rightful owners with every single one of the passing weeks.
This Corvette with its psychedelic looks and its flavourful colors is one of the most creative wraps you may see out on the market at the moment.
