Yep, a little bling breaks up all that darkness, kinda like a diamond necklace and earrings to highlight a lovely woman in a little black dress. 
Incidentally those pipes were only polished once about 13K miles ago, and remain the same as in the pic with only a damp microfiber towel wipe-down once a week.

FIRST QUESTION for the Convertible Crowd:
I'm unclear about the Interior Alarm System. I once had my alarm go off and, upon running outside to see what was up, I found my Radar Detector had fallen from my windshield. So, I know the alarm goes off with the top up and the windows closed.
My question is: Does the alarm go off under any other conditions?
Such as...
1. The top down and the windows either up or down and someone sticks an arm inside?
2. Or, the top up with either of the windows down?
Thanks in advance for your enlightened replies!

Sure.... just position your cursor in the reply text box where you want the picture to appear, click on the yellowish icon box above the text with mountain/sun, it will ask you where to find your photo(s) ...e.g. "Browse your device" and a dialog box will open to allow you to specify location.
Upload it/them and it will "clock" % while it is loading them.... then select "insert"..... you can, of course re-order multiple pictures or preview your post or just submit the reply.
Hope that helps....LK

Administrator savewave was kind enough to let us try a sub-section for Convertibles/Roadsters/Drop-tops or what ever you want to call them as a sticky for a month to see if their was enough traffic to justify it's existence.
My own experience has been frustrating trying to find info that applies to verts only and having to sift thru hundreds of posts trying to find a owner with a soft top car to chat with. Let's see if we can generate enough posts on here to make it permanent.
I've owned about twenty Vettes and only one was a coupe. When I was looking for my current '14 Z51 3LT M7 MRC roadster, I was flexible on the color but the manual roadster was the only car I considered.
Help me make this work!

First Ever Convertible - Love It!!!
Over the years I 've had so many different cars with hardtops, t-tops, moon roofs and such , but never a convertible. So when I retired I purchased my first ever convertible and it is a 2016 C7. Totally love it.
