Customization means a lot of things to just as many people. For some, a bumper sticker and an exhaust finisher are enough. Ringbrothers, on the other hand, dressed up a Cadillac ATS-V as a 1948 Cadillac Series 62. For a gentleman named Mike Ho, a vinyl wrap has completely transformed the look of his 2020 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible.
In the RGB color space, Army Green is composed of 29.4 percent red, 32.5 percent green, and 12.5 percent blue. The pictures posted by Mike Ho on Facebook appear to mirror HEX color code #4b5320 very well, and the matte finish contrasts very well with the glossy black of the mirrors and roof.

The hard-topped convertible also rocks a set of machine-polished aftermarket wheels that boast Michelin rubber boots, yellow brake calipers, gloss-black nacelles, and the Z51 spoiler. The final touch comes in the guise of LPO code VST illuminated sill plates with the Corvette Stingray logo, an official accessory that’s temporarily unavailable to order.

From the standpoint of hardware, the C8 in the photo gallery appears to be all stock. This means the 6.2-liter LT2 small-block V8 develops 5 horsepower and pound-feet of torque more than the non-Z51 specification thanks to the NPP performance exhaust. In other words, this engine belts out 495 ponies and 470 pound-feet (637 Nm) of torque at the crank.

Like every other convertible, this body style commands a $7,500 premium over the coupe. It’s hard to tell what trim level we’re dealing with, but nevertheless, even the base 1LT offers plenty of standard equipment.

Starting at $67,495 for the convertible body style, the Stingray 1LT offers eight-way power seats, dual-zone electronic climate control, a 10-speaker audio system from Bose, 8.0-inch infotainment with over-the-air updates, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as Mulan leather upholstery.

The Z51 Performance Package, which is the most popular and most expensive option, adds $5,995 to the tally. In no particular order, this package sweetens the deal with Brembo brakes, better suspension, a less restrictive exhaust, different gearing, an electronic limited-slip differential, aerodynamic trickery, Michelin PS4S tires, and heavy-duty cooling for extended track use.
