SKiDs, yessir I saw that. Its another bummer for me too! lol. Anyway I am resolved in waiting for the new car and now I got to add the MyGig which I didnt for the first one and also can learn what mods are going to work better on the 09's from you guys that get yours before mine. I am glad yours is moving along quite well. I cant wait to hear your car has been deilvered as I know you can either! As for the stripes, I talked to my dealer about this and he is not sure either way. I have seen several 09's and they were all flat black stripes but in articles in magazines and a few other places as Youtube I have seen the stripes in Carbon fiber so I am not sure how they are coming out. as for rare, I wouldnt go so far as that because eventually you will be able to get them from a deler with no issues and people that deleted them on their order can add them in. Plus over time they will peel and crack and need replaced and carbon may not be availabe at that time. So, very hard to say. Now, my first SRT would be as the order form and build sheet say 6 speed and if it is an auto, that would be a rare car for sure.
