That decision has been plaguing my mind even more than the color decision. It's an expensive freaking option, but I think it is worth it.

Hate to quote myself, but I think I have the story here. There were xxx number of CTF cars produced (I will leave the exact number out for now, but it is less than 1000). So there are production cars that have VINs in the range of 1000-xxx - for example the VIN #000624 car shown as well as some other cars. Those units are completely saleable units and are regular production vehicles. I hope this clears things up.

Thumbs up

I like the ground effects, just not too crazy about the chrome/stainless exhaust ports. They look kinda cheesy, seeing the exhaust tips in there.
But over all, not too bad.
THANKS for posting those pics as well.

I was kinda' thinking I was going to paint them regardless, but was apprehensive about them costing what they do, not including paint. However, after seeing that, I know they'd look better painted (IMHO). I don't know if I'm diggin' the chin spoiler, but otherwise, it looks aggressive and bad@$$.

This car is HOT!!! Felt like the papparazzi was chasing us. People speeding up or slowing down to get on the side of us to take pictures with their phones. Anywhere we stopped people pulled up to ask about it and ask to take pictures. Wild day for sure.

The only pic I have right now is from my phone. Will get more up soon. Not sure on the mods yet but some changes will be made
TXInfernoSS i dont know if anyone asked you yet when you bought your Maro did you pay at MSRP or below MSRP with all the options and mods can you 411? thanks....

The GFX just looks too bling for my taste. It looks unique though..

Alright, I'll ask this NICE and SLOWLY. Please......did you have to pay any extra to have the ground effects painted? Was it included with the ground effects kit? Is it possible for you to find out from the dealer what the painting of the ground effects cost and if they were included in the price? Thank you.
