The first owners to receive their 2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray love the car. There are some bugs to be worked out in some areas, but in terms of the look, feel and performance, owners love the C8. Chevrolet offers an array of options for owners who want to make different from others, but we have seen many owners looking into certain modifications shortly after taking delivery. Those upgrades make a big difference in the look and performance, while also keeping the new Corvette looking great over time.

Mind you, there are many other modifications for the 2020 Corvette Stingray. These are the five most common early modifications that have the biggest impact, listed in no particular order.

Ceramic Coating Your Corvette

No matter what you plan to do with your 2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, you want to have it ceramic coated by an accredited detailer. A good shop will go through the steps of paint correction, removing any scuffs, scratches, and swirls from the surface. They will then coat the paint in the ceramic product, sealing and protecting the flawless paint. Once the ceramic coating has been applied, the car will look like it has the best wax job ever and it will last for years.

Ceramic coating costs more than an average wax job, which runs some people away from the process, but if you want your C8 Corvette to look its best, ceramic coating is a must. You want to make sure that the shop has a good reputation for ceramic coating and you can expect to pay a couple grand for a long-term coating, but it is worth every cent. Or you could do it yourself with Avalon King Armor Shield IX.
