Actually my point was, as long as C7 sales numbers are maintaining, there's not much need to spend money to make major changes to the C7. But if sales numbers drop off, that's a different story.

Nice change out.

I also have a AR interior but opt'ed for the 2LT because I didn't want the reflective colors on the dash. Probably just a pilot thing.

Use XPEL PPF Sealant every so often for the areas covered in XPEL. It leaves a glassy finish, just like wax. It works on the non-covered areas as well.
