GM RPO - G1E

RPO sticker isn't in the glove box any more, it's under the rear carpet next to the battery on C7's.

Try under 2015 and other GM cars for the same paint code, they have used it on a few other cars first before the corvette.

The 2015 Buick Enclave has the same paint for example, they call it a different name though.

•Exterior color (G1E) Crimson Red Tintcoat (additional charge - premium paint)
