I would love to add some blue. But I can buy a 600cc motorcycle preppered for the track for the same cost as some blue trim pieces! Ahhh Corvette tax sucks.

A darker blue might work with Torch Red, like maybe the darker Twilight Blue interior, but I feel like Tension Blue is such a bright shade of blue that it would clash with the bright red exterior, IMO.

I bet it would look awesome with your blue rims, though!

Obviously you missed out on the orange exterior/blue interior craze.
