*Disclaimer *

Car has very meticulously placed foil tape .. it is not silver paint. But the paint is gray under the foil. The clear coat is peeling back that’s why my dad put the foil.

Very original looking!

Everybody is intrigued!

My father put the tape on... it took 12 hrs over two days.

Still looks great, drives even better!

That is certainly... something.

I feel like an actual wrap would have been cheaper.

Kilt switch? Do you really need to switch to a kilt if you buy that?

A kilt switch is where the side skirts fly up if you press it.

The golden L98 valve covers really sets the paint, er, foil tape off.

Yeah, the exterior is atrocious, but you could probably rip off all the tacky crap and plastidip it in a weekend.

It blows fresh, cool air on your junk. Only works if wearing a kilt.

Do they used foil wrap, everywhere, except places it would matter?

And to be hones that silver over grey that C4s had was one of the few two-tone schemes that look really good.

That’s a good candidate for a roadkill style Vette-cart.

You know what, though, my gut says NP, tape and all. $3 grand for a V8 RWD piece of America that, if the seller is to be believed, is in pretty decent shape? Hell yes. You won’t see the foil from the driver’s seat anyway.

I think the auto trans kills it for me more than the tape.
