I just talked with the prior owner of #28. The car was actually on display at Barrett Jackson Scottsdale at the Xpel booth. They did a complete body warp and applied some extra goodies. Since I have taken delivery of the vehicle with only 385 miles on it the Blue Jake was taken off at the dealership for some reason. However, they left the rear decal on. I talked to the installer this morning and they said they have the material to replicate if I want.
Have not decided if I really like the look.
Blue Jake looks awesome. Do you have a wider shot of the rear decal?
The center portion comes with the Z07 option. along with the Phase III front splitter and side skirts.
Interesting...No Z07, and only Stage 1 splitter/skirts on mine, yet I still have one. Not that I'm terribly concerned about it, but interesting discrepancy.
Looks awesome! I've been looking to do the same. Thanks for the link. I just bought tension blue grand sport sticker for my front window. Once I receive and install, I'll post pictures.
My CE doesn't have a splitter. The rear spoiler was not attached to the vehicle, but was in the trunk and dealer installed. Should I have a splitter or do I need to purchase?

You should have the front splitter and the dealer should have installed the spoiler. I'd call the dealer back pronto.

Yes, even stage 1. Check your window sticker - rocker extensions are listed under standard equipment. All GS and 2017+ Z06s get them to help with rock chips hitting the rear quarter and brake duct.

Thats an amazing looking GS. Those new self-healing paint protection work great.
I have it on my Z06, an azzhole keyed my front driver fender, but failed.
I hope he reads this because I know who he is.
Get a ding or scratch, park it in the sun light for few minutes or use a heat gun....very careful
As much as I generally distrust car dealers, I'm not sure why it surprises me so much, but I'm blown away by the handful of recent posts in this thread of people taking deliveries of their cars with obvious parts missing (i.e. splitters, side skirts, even spoilers) that are supposed to be part of the car! Parts that are plainly listed on the window sticker. Sad that some folks have to come on this site to learn what their car is supposed to have on it, and even sadder that the dealer didn't bother to install said parts and/or has to be fought with to get those parts. I mean, seriously! Do the powers that be in Bowling Green have any idea this is going on? How many other folks out there are rolling around in Vettes that are missing parts their owners paid for, that they never knew they were supposed to have?!?
EDIT...sorry if I got too far off-topic for the CE thread. Recent posts of missing parts on new CEs just boggle my mind!

I couldn't agree more. So far, I'm very disappointed with my dealer. Chevy dealerships are obviously not used to dealing with people who spend $80,000 plus on cars, and have no idea how provide service at this level. It's like pulling teeth to get return phone calls. Service and sales are not on the same page. When I called my sales guy today and questioned him, he said he'd have it taken care of, but questioned me as to whether the car was supposed to have these parts. I explained that it was on the sticker. I can only imagine how long this is going to take to resolve. Took 2 weeks to get my 500 mile oil change.
The first part of this Technlink details out the aero components (Stage 1, 2 3) for dealers....there is a good set of tables by car model that covers what the different components are.

Nice work again mountaineers. thanks for that. DWS, i completely agree, after spending $100,000, we should not have to review the parts list to make sure the car is correct. Chevy should use this forum and others like it as a measuring device to customer satisfaction and how to do their job better. Hopefully they are taking note!!

i often notice a message in mine that says gears skipped for fuel economy or something like that. Strange thing is I have a manual so no gears are skipping. Any idea what this is? Anyone notice this?

That's the CAGS kicking in (Computer Aided Gear Selection). Its a trick GM uses to squeeze a little more MPG out of a manual Vette for better gov't gas mileage rating. Basically, if you try to shift the manual trans during the brief time that message appears, the trans will lock you out of 2nd and force you to go from first to fourth. It only happens in a very short speed range, like 15-19 MPH, and only under a certain level of acceleration. You can purchase a CAGS eliminator that plugs into the trans to eliminate the lock out from happening if it bugs you (I did), but sounds like it's not been a big deal for you, though.
