Whether you take your corvette to local classic car shows or hot rod events, you want to make sure your muscle car has the right accessories for the occasion. Here are a few must-have accessories to bring on your next trip to a car show.

Corvette Car Cover

While at the car show, you won't have the luxury of keeping your Corvette stored in your garage. Fortunately, a car cover can help to shield your vhicle's fiberglass body from dirt dust, and scratches. Look for a cover made to fit your model year so you can be sure that the entire body is covered. These covers can also be used when you take a lunch break at the car show to help keep people from inspecting the vehicle when you aren't present.

Light Kits

While you won't want to drive around town with green headlights or neon lights enveloping your car, you may want to consider a light kit for use at auto shows. You can find a host of LED kits that let you illuminate the undercarriage or trunk, and some light kits let you replace the headlights and taillights to bring a cool glow to the vehicle. This option is ideal for any outdoor car shows held at night, as you can keep your car bright and easy to see in a sea of chrome and metal. Be sure to remove any lighting from the vehicle that's not legal for the road before you drive your Corvette home, as this will help to prevent you from getting a ticket and from causing a distraction on the road.

Fiberglass Repair Kit

While at the show, a well-meaning toddler or busy spectator may accidentally bump and scratch your Corvette. Come prepared with a fiberglass repair kit, which can be used to perform temporary repairs on minor scratches and scuffs. These quick-drying kits can repair cracks and cuts in the car's body as well. Remember that you'll still need to paint the area later, but having access to a kit at the show means you can begin the repair process right away.

Corvette Apparel

Consider completing your car show setup with some Corvette apparel. A sweatshirt or T-shirt can proudly show your allegiance to this classic American car, while a hat can help to keep the sun out of your eyes while also identifying you as a 'Vette fan. If your car is part of a racing team, think about having the team name printed on the back of any Corvette shirts you wear for a fun finishing touch.

Your Corvette is your pride and joy, and that's why you want to show it off at local car shows. Use these accessories to make your car the best it can be at the show.
