I made a layup of code GJI. This includes the new Buick and Caddy models, the original release puck from The Bash, GM's official color illustration, my modification of the GM website illustration, and the ZR1 that was a "hybrid color" between WGG and GJI shown at the LA Auto show last year.

GJI is very dynamic, like WGG, and shifts hue and value considerably in highlight and shadow. So I thought this layup would help people understand the color better by seeing it in different lighting conditions and on different shapes. And it's easier to compare the pics when you don't have to switch tabs or scroll.
