Default Getting started to accessorize

Good day all. In the process of buying a new 2019 Grand Sport and there are a few things I'll be adding to it from the dealer. The colour of this Beast is Sebring Orange and it has the JAKE Hood Stinger Decal Package on it. As you folks probably know the decal is two tone with carbon flash and grey. Now seeing that this car is a Grand Sport I think it would be fitting that it should also have the Fender Hash Mark Decal Package on it too. Just keeping with tradition I guess. Now I know I can get that decal in carbon flash but seeing the grey is the more dominant colour on the stinger I'd rather go that route. This car has a whack of carbon flash on it as it is. The question is. What shade of grey is it? Now of course when I look up the decal on Chevy's Canadian site I get Fusion Grey. On the US site it's Shark Grey. At least on the US site they give a part number. That's if any of these colours are the same as the JAKE Stinger. I guess I'll find out if the Canadian part number is the same when I sit with the Accessory Guy at the dealership. If it's not the same does anyone what to hazard a guess?

Other than that I'll probably JAKE the rest of it. It already has the center caps on the rims. The JAKE logo interior trim badge would be a nice touch and of course add the CAI under the hood. Because for all that money it won't give me anymore horse power. But it does have the neat skull on the window. LOL

Congrats on your pending purchase of a new GS. The orange color is awesome.

Good luck as you customize the car to reflect your own tastes.

It'll be a bit before you'll see pictures. Next week I'm going out to see it and finalize the deal and have them add on the stuff. They are being really good to me and are going to store the car in their heated storage facility over the winter. Winters can damn near last till May up here. About then is when I'll bring it home. But not to worry. I'll be posting pics like it was my first born son.

Congrats and enjoy personalizing it. Be sure to drive it instead of saving it for the next owner. I wouldn't drive anything other than a C7, way too much fun.
