Every now and then, a build comes through that stops us in our tracks — and Artis Johnson’s C8 Corvette did exactly that. Based out of San Tan Valley, Arizona, Artis brought us one of the most accessorized and personalized C8s we’ve ever laid eyes on. From custom lighting and trim pieces to interior and engine bay details, this C8 was the definition of passion and creativity.
To complete the look, Artis chose our Torch Edition V2 Vertical Door Kit, finished in a color perfectly matched to his Corvette’s factory accents. Once installed, the bright red components tied his entire build together — complementing his theme and setting his C8 apart from every other Corvette on the road.
A Customer Who Embodies Passion and Positivity
Artis is retired now, but you wouldn’t know it by how active and enthusiastic he is about his cars. Working on them keeps him busy, happy, and connected to his love for automotive craftsmanship. Spending the day with him was an absolute pleasure — he was accommodating, genuine, and welcoming from the moment we arrived.
It’s customers like Artis that remind us why we do what we do. The energy he brings to every modification shows in every inch of his Corvette, and pairing that passion with our Eikon Motorsports V2 Series Vertical Doors made for one unforgettable installation.
Built for Performance and Style
Just like every V2 Series kit we produce, Artis’s setup features:
- Billet T6-6061 aluminum brackets
- A36 structural-grade steel arms
- Sealed roller-ball bearing pivot system for smooth, friction-free motion
- Lifetime Shock Replacement Warranty
It’s engineered for precision fitment, OEM-style looks, and effortless function — the perfect finishing touch for a build as detailed as Artis’s.
