Safety Car
1. Paint black rear bumper/diffuser body color on Day#1 @ dealer!

3. Change the 4 big round pipes to "squared" types shown in photochops.
4. Add rear spoiler on Day#1 @ dealer if not included.
5. Tint all windows on Day #1
6 Remove awkward misplaced "Corvette" lettering from center rear.
Wow, .. 4 out of my 6 have to do with the rear!

I took the letters off one side of this pic below and removed that horizonal reflector to see what it would look like smoothed out a little bit.

It's better...
Less is so much more.

Those letters do look kinda awkward. I know they need the cars emblem back there but there is just so much going on back there on that rear bumper. I wish they would have made the name into the bumper rather than the stick on letters.

Taking a good look at those rear taillights, it looks like an easy aftermarket solution to give us rounded tail lights or something a bit nicer and less camaro like...
I'm going to place my order on Tuesday at a large dealer here in Ohio.
I think first mods for me will be:

Burning Brakes
I wont be getting one for quite a while but....
I'm not even sure, and that's a damn good thing.
I was going to say headers, but with the new manifolds we don't know how much they'll help as they barely did anything for the LS7
Don't know how good the shifter will be, but thats a huge thing for me
Should have good street tires already on it...
Maybe an intake might be the best bang for your buck mod? (well besides a tune but that will break warranty in a heartbeat)

Put it on scales for baseline.
Light weight battery, light wheels, track pads, harness bar, harness, check alignment after lowering as much as possible, add Vbox and camera unless the new laptimer / camera option does the job, window tint, remove all decals that don't leave holes, paint chrome strip, paint reflectors.
