Sorry for the poor quality photo... Apparently Apple miss the bus when it came to providing a good camera for there I Pads. She's not quit finished yet. Going to add a cool scallop on the hood in carbon flash.

A few pics ....2015 C7 1LT, ZF1 Appearance Pkg, OEM GM Chrome 19 & 20" chrome wheels, and OEM GM Front Splitter/AirDam/Spolier and C7Carbon GTX Fiberglass Z06 Style Side Skirts.

This is one amazing automobile. GM really got this car right! I am getting tons of compliments and these C7's are real "head turners".

Noob here but I looked at all 24 pages of TR pictures... I only saw a handful of stripes all of which were black (carbon flash) - has anyone seen a picture (not the synthetic picture on Chevrolet's website) of a TR C7 (and/or z06) with Blade Silver stripes ? I would like ideally white stripes on my red 'vette but I can't tell how dark the silver is and if it'd work

Interior wise also am hesitating between grey, red, and kalahari - while I like brown am not sure it works that well with a red outside

Grey is light, Red with Red is a lot of Red, and Kalahari seems to be very popular with Red and goes very well with it. If you want Brown (Brownstone), you will need to get the 3LT option, that is the only way to get. There are a lot of pics within the Red Color Thread that you mentioned with these interiors in them, and a couple of the combos you mentioned are in this thread. Good Luck with your decision.

Lots of garage time here in Minnesota. 4 steps with Adam's and the Red Devil is shining. Smoothie fuel rail covers, custom air brush plenum and hood liner on the way

I have the Gray Interior on my 2015 C7. It looks great. In order to provide some contrast to the "gray", I add the black Lloyds mats with the Corvette Logo and a rear hatch mat win black with the Stingray logo.

I also added some black seat belt Corvette pads to off set the gray and add contrast. I get lots of comliments.

I was going to go Adreneline Red, but flet the Red on Red might be a bit too much.

Looks great.

Now you need a set of side skirts to protect the rocker panels.
