The black and comp grey accents really look good on CB. Toughens the color up a bit. Well done.

LOVE CB!!! you're lucky to own CB!

The black headlights look great

the wheels look dirty, "cheapens" the look...

silver wheels, and factory chrome GS badge is perfect compliment to the color, IMHO

Couldn't have said it better. Very Nice Combo.

I also think the gray heritage stripes will work.

Not me. I really do not like the color at all. But if your happy with it then that's really great for you.

thank you rick T. for some reason i feel like i got ripped off.....they look almost the same. i mean it says dark gray in the options list.....its not even dark at all. its like all they did was change the corvette logo and the circles indicating the pistons to a different color and charge $600 bucks.

initially i wanted torch red, and from time to time sometimes i wish i had gotten inferno orange instead but i still love it and get compliments all the time.

a little side story....tim@boardwalk ordered the car i eventually purchased spec'd exactly like one from the grand sport brochure on chevrolets website. the first time i saw that picture something inside me told me go for Carlisle Blue. funny how it turned out.

Looks like the lettering on your calipers are black, therefore those are the gray calipers. Looks light to you because of the dark wheels.

You got a great looking vette.
