Welcome, Tom here as well. I've got a Cyber Gray GS, the colors are similar in a way. In bright sun the Cyber Gray has hints of Blue, and the Supersonic Blue has hints of Gray, both great colors IMO. No cosmetic changes for mine other than Lloyds GS logo mats and a 2-tone padded DSVettes console lid. You'll LOVE the GS, believe me! Congrats.

Thank you so much to everyone and I think I understand why I can't post pics. It's only allowing 250 x 250 and all my pics are over 1000 x 700. I think this is the reason and I cannot attach pics right from my computer, so I need a photo site?

Welcome aboard. And congrats.

The splitter and side skirts would look great on your car. I say go for it.

GM put carbon fiber splitter and side skirts on the top of the line ZR1, so why not add them to your G/S?
