Yes mine are blue too, they look really cool! I showed them at the 1:30 mark in the vid but because there were some lights overhead in the drive-through I was in they didn't show up too well - plus I had turned the brightness down on the dash lights which I think dims the doors too. When I bought the car I had only tested it during daylight so I was pleasantly surprised by those lights the first time I drove it at night. Do all 5th gens have them or does it depend on year/trim?

2LT and 2SS have the ambient lighting.

Thanks - I had fun driving with the top down today even though it was in the upper fifties - just cranked up the heat and I was fine - the heated seats helped too. Only thing I wish it had is an "airscarf" like my Dad's Benz which pumps warm air out of the bottom of the headrest to keep your neck warm. I only saw one other car today driving with no top - an AC Cobra roadster replica (I assume it was a replica!)

I came out of the gym today and had this Chevy monster parked next to me so I had to snap a pic

Damn man, how do you keep your GFX tips/bezels so dang shiny and clean?

I have those exact same MBRP tips and due to the limited clearance I can only clean the outer edges. I have about the same overhang as your tips do. Mine get covered in carbon pretty quickly, maybe because I run catless?

Your car is beautiful. I would love me a convertible.

Thanks.

Every time I wash her I use a rag on the tips and bezels. She gets headers & high flow cats in the spring so I’ll see if the carbon gets worse.

Vert's fun in the summer for sure, and on some nice cruises through the mountains. Same goes for T-tops.
