This is incorrect but the issue is EVERYONE is confusing the rockers and the side body panels next to the air intake.

Side rockers... standard is body color. $550 STI is black.

Air intake... carbon flash is standard. You can pay for body color.

The rocker start right behind the front wheel and run just under the bottom of the door. These are standard in body color.
You can see in the pics above the silver car has body colored and the blue car has black rockers

Don’t know how to draw circles. But.. the side intake is the part that extends on to the door and the door handle is underneath. That is standard black carbon flash.
The rocker is the thin straight piece starting behind front wheel and running under bottom of door. Shown here black but that is the $550 option. Standard is body color

Maybe call the dealer? Oh right...that would make way too much sense...standard is carbon flash. And why exactly did you start a second thread with the same question with a totally useless title

Called the Chevrolet Corvette Concierge today. the rocker panel comes in the color of the car. The sti black rocker is a option. The body color rocker has a lip on it that looks like the sti rocker if that makes sense. Both look like a short half side skirt.
