Default Ok, this is interesting....

I was researching whether or not there is a different AeroPanel for a Base/Z51 and Z06/GS grill and figured the place to start was the build sheet for my '19 Elkhart Lake Blue Metallic Grand Sport. And I noticed something interesting....

The Build Sheet calls the color code GS7 - Rhythm & Blue Met (while the window sticker does call it ELBM)

A quick search of the forum turned up this thread about Laguna Blue (apparently LB is also referred to as Rhythm & Blue Met)

https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...nt-colors.html

I dunno...just found that interesting. Now back to the AeroPanel research...

Kind of confusing - you would figure that the build sheet and window sticker would match for the same car.

The same thing goes for my Shark Gray. Sticker says SG but build sheet says Fusion Gray.

My 2016 and another 2016 I looked at have the build sheets showing code G7H and named Laguna Blue. I did see another gray one named Fusion Gray.
