White always great, and especially great on the C7...
But way too many contrasting vents designed to appeal to the 'kids' just discovering the Corvette and liking its Ferronda styling. Looks like sparks should come out of the back when you push it on the ground.
Leaving the hood vents body colored would have been more overall sophisticated styling IMO...

If by OP you are referring to me, I apologize for the confusion. I did not take these pics. As it has been mentioned, these are from the Vaughans. I met them at the bash this year (as I imagine several of you did), and had a great discussion with Ryan regarding the interior. Naturally I followed them on Instagram, but was surprised to see that no one here or on corvette blogger picked up these awesome photos to share! They are some of the best shots taken in my opinion, and Instagram is a great strategy to reach an additional demographic.

That really is a nice, bright white...and it seems to somewhat disguise the over-abundance of creases. It's odd how both white and black can accomplish that...though black will disguise all the black trim as well...JMO
But be careful...they'll jump on your neck. Knowing this, I'd go one step farther anyway and say that all the vents, the "A" pillars, and the top half of the rear diffuser should be painted body color as well. I've seen it photo-shopped, and the car definitely looks much more finished...JMO

i will be really glad when the whole instagram fad dies -- if I wanted to look at high quality pictures though a 70's lens, I'd buy an old POS camera.
Nice car thoughh.

This is why you should buy arctic white:
Road trip happened about a week ago. Went from Michigan to Tampa, Florida.
Note of clarification: I did not shoot these. They were originally shared on Instagram by the performance interior design manager @GM.
Had to reshare here!

I was in Naples, Fla today and saw these guys. There was a red stingray with two chevy trucks in a convoy driving around. The plates said Michigan "manufacturer".
The car does look nicer in person.

Agreed! I don't like the carbon roof because unless you get the car in cyber grey, you will have that body colored bar across the roof sticking out like a sore thumb. Looks much cleaner with the body color roof..flows better.

I only had a few minutes so i couldn't change the color of the vents to white but I took them away and replaced them with white.
I think it gives you an idea of how it would look.
I also removed the Corvette lettering.
If i have time later tonight I can work on it more.
