The outer ones are the only ones with valves...

So when they are open, the path of least resistance is the outer pipes (by a lot)...

Sweet, thanks for the insight. That’s why the higher maintenance keeping the outsides clean. I have had Borla since new, but apparently it’s still the same outcome.

Yep, exactly, if you keep up on them, there is no long term discoloration or other changes, if you let them get nasty it may take a lot of work to get them back to looking like new (if even possible)... I pulled my NPP fuse so my valves are open 100% of the time (even in Track Mode the NPP valves do close some times) but both my outers and inners look the same, I just wipe them out regularly with a paper towel with some windex on it...

Drove it. Really gotta think about some upgrades of some kind. She's just a little too vanilla at the moment.

I think you need to take the photo holding the phone sideways. If you take a "portrait" orientation photo and rotate it later I don't think the forum holds that edited rotation.

I finally got the 1LE wheels that I bought from a forum member put on with a set of Conti EC 02's. So happy to be rid of the ugly Carbon flash wheels and the runflats.

I do not rotate anything, any other time it turns out fine. I do not know why it gets turned here??? Then out of the blue it’ll turn its self, will see what happens today? I know others it does the same thing? Very strange?? HA!!

I LOVE the ZL1 single stripe up over the hood and onto the rear deck! If I had a ZL1, or ANY 6th gen with that hood, I'd definitely do the stripe!

Those wheels looks great! Trying to decide on wheels myself. Conti's EC tires are my go-to tires as well. I actually love my stock '16 56R SS wheels but I just want more tire. Anyhow...looking good.

Same, hated the run flats on my 2024 LT1 M6 and found GM 1LE take offs with Supercar 3's... they throw a lot of rocks, so I did rock guards and some PPF. Put rear caliper covers that look more legit than the front Brembo's, red leather knee pads, door striker covers, ZL1 start button, skip shift, might mouse mild catch can... and have an LT2 intake all ready to go. Just remembered how much I am voiding my warranty while driving it to work today!

OK gpskinzhut, you had to know suggestions would follow:
1) Pull the rear spoiler off and take to your local body shop and tell'em to shoot it gloss black whenever they've got some left over. You should get it back in a couple of days and I wouldn't expect it to cost more than $100.
2) consider black hash marks on the front fenders. Chevy offered in 2017 some with the Camaro logo embedded in it kind've like a "water mark". They look pretty good IMHO.
3) If you haven't coughed up the bucks to change the gas cover to the gloss black aftermarket version, that makes a nice 'performance appearing' attitude look to the car as well. It is truly a 60 second mod to accomplish.
Just my 2cents worth-

1LE wheels are the best looking oem Gen 6 wheels hands down in my opinion. I have them on my ZL1.
