Is this a 2015 part? I think they have to be?...they are a GM part and came in GM packaging. Thanks to NYVette007 for finding these on Ebay at this link:
Genuine GM 2014 Corvette C7 FRT RR Bumper Emblem Carbon Flash GM 23183712 15 | eBay

anyway they are really nice, esp on my CG color... I had solid Carbon flash+ clear flags on the car, but these are subtle and pop at the same time, due to the red...These are approx 120 a pair, I'm happy, they are OEM quality...

before the inevitable "how do you do this?", Search "debadge" here - using fishing line, goo gone and alcohol...

thanks again Basil!

old ones for sale here:

Glen e,
Thanks for the pics.
I have been back and forth about whether to go with Carbon flash or gloss black on my Black Vette.
I an now going with the carbon flash.
They will match all of the trim and rear de-fuser too.
Doing Lettering on the rear, Stingray Badges and front/rear flags.
Those Brickyards are going to look great when you get them.

I went with the total black carbon flash myself...but I like the Gray alternating checkered parts...Red just doesn't do if for me, but that's just a matter of personal preference, not a criticism...Also, any hint of color does not fit with the total "stealth" look I'm going for, including the rear tail lights and reflectors....
as far as the tail lights go, Alysha has some great pix she posted where the red is totally blacked out, but the clear for the backup lights (and turn signals?) are left alone so it should be much easier to convince a cop of municipal court judge that the blacked out red was stock...if not, why didn't the clear get blacked out also?

Understood, if you look at my signature thread, I've done over 45 mods on the car, I NEVER leave a car alone as I have an image in my mind of what I want it to look like. I post these mods not for agreement or acceptance, I'm the only one who matters. But I always post the link and how to do it, which is my mission. My posts never include "what d' ya think of this?" Because honestly, and said with no malice, I don't care what others think...LOL...that being said, I'm very interested in others suggestions on the look.

That's the best part of owning one of these cars, making it your own! I like your car glen, she looks awesome.

I ordered these the other night after seeing them on Glen's car. I think they are going to look fantastic on our black cars! ;)

I think these are becoming regular parts for Vettes and not just the Z06 as I do think the Atlantic and Pacific editons are also showing the Carbon Flash emblems. I want the whole set if I can get them. It certainly adds a nice touch to the lighter coloured cars I think Blk and NRB would be difficult to enjoy them on. They will go with my CFlash theme that I have tried to capture in the build of mine.:rolleyes:

6/12/14:
Tried to order CF flags and Stingray emblems yesterday and they have part #s but not available until Sept. If there are any out there they may be aftermarket. I want the letters for "CORVETTE" as well. Price for emblems was very reasonable. Around $100.00 for the four. Not sure on the letters yet as they were not listed. I love the look on the CGM and BS & VY Not sure about the other colours.

You got that right BLURAY, They will look great especially if you have the CFlash accent theme. Like yours and mine. Did you buy those from a dealer or on Ebay? Cool. My dealer says not in stock yet but will let me know. Did you buy the Stringray side emblems as well? Like them a lot. :cool:

Thanks for the adivce, but I saw the comp screen and they were definately listed as not available. Perhaps because it was in Canada. I want them and will get them but I can wait. Thanks for the info though. This is why webs and threads like this work. Good stuff guys. STUNG:cool:
