Crystal red, carbon mirrors and spoiler, black wheels...

...body colored roof and yellow calipers.
Just arrived at Criswell today and I will be picking up on Saturday morning. It's going for tint on Tuesday.

I haven't seen the car in person yet...but FWIW I still think white is the best color I've seen for the C7. But since my wife had some input on this one...there wasn't a chance of me selling her on white.

I love the black mirrors. I may have mine painted or just order black ones from GM Parts.

Not crazy about profound colored calipers. Red or yellow, make brake assembly look like the calipers were added after completion and the technician didn't have time to paint. I know this is the new fad, oh well!

Very cool...I think I just said last night that our cars would probably be on the same truck.

I like it! Yellow caripers are the way to go with CRM, the red is more of a torch red and would clash with CRM IMO.

That's exactly what I thought about the red. Since the car has black wheels, I didn't think the black calipers would "pop" enough. So I did yellow. I really would have liked a gold like on my GT-R's...it looks good with just about any color.

I love CRM, but I think this confirmed for me that I would chrome with this color. Or polished aluminum if that were an option.

Congrats!! Now drive it like you stole it.
