Ok being new to the crossfire crowd, I have seen plenty of pictures of many of the cars on here and notice a trend with a lot of them as far as some exterior mods. So can someone explain to me the mods and how they are tied to the cross fire heritage if at all. I see alot of cars witrh the two lower stripes on the rear rocker panel. They look pretty kool that way., But just wondering if it had any ties to the crossfire heritage. I know the Grand Sport corvette is what started them for the 1963 model year and again in 1996/2010 But what about the crossfire? This other mod I'm sure is tied in some way but just dont know how? The Karmann logo. Where are these emblems being sold? Like I said pretty kool mods just wondering about how they came about.
Thanks Tim

 

The lower stripes are simply and aesthetic mod... no real heritage, rhyme, or reason. I like the way they look, but they won't be going on my vehicle.

As for Karmann logos, our Crossfires are manufactured at the Karmann plant in Wilhelm, Germany. Same as some older M-Benz models and the Karmann-Ghia VW back in the day.

So, we have Mercedes guts, Karmann body, and Chrysler claims all the glory with a few wing badges.

Kinda unfair, but then again, most people end up de-badging anyways.
