1SA is a preferred equipment group.

RPO code for Sebring Silver Metallic is 13U.

RPO code for Light Pewter Metallic is 11U.

Either way the car in that picture is most definitely silver, my personal favorite color.

The gap does appear to be a bit too large, unless the hatch was popped in that picture. There would be no difference in gapping between a V6/Z28/SS, because they all use the same hatch and tail panel; only difference would be the spoiler, which has no bearing on the gap between the tail panel and the hatch.

Here is a picture of my '98 with the hatch closed and latched:



And here is a picture with the hatch popped but not lifted, thus making the gap just slightly larger than above ('98s use a different release mechanism, so they don't pop up as high as the '99+ cars do):

The SLP 2OTL/TOTL (2/two on the left) was only a factory option on the '96-'97 SS models. In the LS1 years, the optional SLP exhaust was dual/dual.

However, SLP continued to sell the 2OTL catback via their aftermarket site (SLP Online) until at least 2005 or '06.
