C3 Chevrolet Corvette Exterior

 

Third-generation Corvettes are known for their distinct shark-like appearance, lightweight fiberglass construction, and exceptional performance capabilities. If you own one of these 1968-1982 Corvette models, you understand the importance of keeping it in mint condition.

Bring your ride back to a factory-fresh state with C3 exterior parts from Top Flight Automotive. We have components compatible with every C3 model year.

Importance of C3 Exterior Parts

Your C3’s exterior condition is the first thing people notice about your Corvette. Collectors, competition judges, and fellow sports car enthusiasts will spot even minor signs of deterioration in seconds. Maintaining a flawless exterior helps your C3 stand out for the right reasons.

Exterior damage like rust and scratches can also decrease your C3’s collector and resale value. Over time, exposure to sunlight and moisture contributes to wear and tear on your C3’s exterior. If you’re involved in a minor collision, the impact can leave behind noticeable dents.

Restore your C3 to show-ready condition with high-quality replacement parts from Top Flight Automotive. You’ll find a range of C3 exterior parts to help you rebuild your Corvette from the ground up.

C3 Corvette Body Panels

Your C3 body panels form your Corvette’s distinct shape and protect its internal components. Instead of frequently repairing damaged body panels, consider buying a replacement panel to ease the restoration process and give you the best results.

Our selection includes body kits with fiberglass components, precision-designed to fit the stock body of your C3. You’ll get the custom look you want for your Corvette, which is the perfect fit for a simplified installation process.

C3 Corvette Bumper Components

Your car’s front and rear bumpers are its first defense against minor collisions and impacts. If your C3 bumpers have seen better days, consider purchasing a replacement from Top Flight Automotive. We carry full bumper replacements, mounting kits, brackets, and other components. Many bumper products we sell are manufactured to fit your C3 without exterior modifications.

These components are designed specifically for 1968–1982 Corvette models and help restore and support the vehicle’s exterior. Car owners can purchase body mount frame parts online, including hardware, bushings, mount shims, and plugs to maintain the frame’s integrity.

If your Corvette requires replacement of small frame components to ensure a smoother drive, our parts offer a reliable solution. The right frame components can help eliminate rattling noises from underneath your sports car and improve both comfort and performance.

Many of the replacement hood assemblies we carry from CA, American Custom Industries, and Auto Accessories of America fasten in the exact locations as OEM technology.

Our site also features the small mechanical components you’ll need to regain hood functionality. Swap out your hood latch tension springs with zero need to hunt for compatible components.
