I heard a different review of the color, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. They sent me some pics (this is car VIN#0001) from their cell phone. I think this is going to be one of those colors you really have to see in person.

That's not a decal. The exposed carbon fiber roof has been an option(RPO C2Z or C2M) since the 2014 C7 was introduced.

I could see this coming. No, we don't have any grammatical errors on this forum.

As soon as you guys have owned 73 Corvettes, we'll issue you official Corvette Forum Grammar Police badges.

Glad Harvey is a good sport here.

Wow. Thanks for that. My car has the exposed roof. I'm talking about the black decal on the roof "halo" between the targa and hatch glass. Did you actually look at the picture after I posted that and not notice the decal?

I thought you were referring to the roof panel, not the halo.

I see that the halo is black, but I doubt that it is a "decal". Maybe a vinyl overlay like the hood stripe or painted(doubtful).

The vinyl overlay on the hood is referred to as a decal. Aka sticker

I think this is one of the colors you have to see in the light of day...in person. Photos don't do it justice...kind of like Sterling Blue.
