If anything, General Motors’ Chevrolet brand will have one of the most comprehensive displays at this year’s edition of the Specialty Equipment Market Association show in Las Vegas.

We’ve already given you a sample of the tuned Sonic hatchbacks, Cruze sedans and Camaro Coupe and Convertible concepts that are heading down to the strip, and now it’s time to show you a pair of Corvette concept cars.

The first ‘Vette study is the Carlisle Blue Grand Sport named after its new blue hue. The concept also gets pearl-white racing stripes while it rolls on a bespoke set of silver alloy wheels and features a number of performance and styling enhancements.

The second concept is the Corvette Z06 Ron Fellows Hall of Fame Tribute edition, which of course celebrates the induction of Corvette racing driver Ron Fellow into the National Corvette Museum’s Hall of Fame. The Z06 was upgraded with numerous original accessories and features custom graphics.
