Default torch red / carbon flash z51 mods

These are pics of my torch red z51 makeover.

Carbon flash mirrors, stinger stripe and spoiler are factory.

Carbon flash "corvette" on back, plate frame and fish are aftermarket.

I also added "stingray" for sills and wheel hubs.

Other additions are window tint and XPEL ultimate coverage on the entire front end, hood, mirrors, back fenders and rocker panels.

Looks awesome! The Corvette lettering on the back and the Stingray logos look 100 times better painted carbon flash.

The mods look better than the stock items in my opinion.

Great looking Vette.

I bought them from RPO, a forum vendor. I had them installed by my body man.
