A few GS upgrades....
We recently bought a white/red 2017 GS and love the car! Besides the radio turning off every 2 minutes (crap!) my GF decided that it needs to be blacked out some more, so here are the results...
- Front fender grill blacked out
- Side and rear markers blacked out
- changed upper air inlets from white to carbon flash
- Mirrors changed to black
- blacked out rear tail lights
- roof panel blacked out
- rear window limo tint
What do you think?

I did vinyl on the roof top and also the B-Pillar following the line of the back window. Will post a better picture once I have one.

OK .. I have heard on the z06 the driver side is pretty easy to get too just removing the fender liner. The passenger side has the dry sump reservoir and you need to unbolt rear of fender and pull it out a couple of inches to get to bolts .. but .. if you have side skirts then you need to drill out the rivets to do that. I assume GS is same.
