Leave the hash marks. Blends in with the spoiler, splitter, and skirts.
Nice looking GS.

I'll take your stripes, lol. I think they belong on our GS.
Congrats! I've had my GS for 4 months now, M7, 1LT. Love it
Added Borla X-pipe about a month ago. I think it fits the personality of the GS M7, rev match sounds awesome!

Nice car, drive the crap out it that's what they are made for. I'm close to 2000 on my 2018 that I picked up at the end of June.

She's a beauty! Congratulations!

I am not the biggest fan of the GS stripes. But, I agree with those who say you should keep them. My GS is also WGGM, and I'm thinking of adding black stripes. They're subtle enough to raise the cool factor considerably, imo.

I'd leave the hash stripes on too. I'm not a black wheels fan but I can make an exception the the WGG. I'm currently looking at a GS Vert that the dealer is trying to give away and it's the same color combination as yours but without the heritage pkg which I wish it had.

I'd leave the stripes but I'm biased. My fender and center stripes are Carbon Flash which match the mirrors, spoiler, rockers, vents and emblems.
