Default fuel rail cover question

I noticed that there are two different color fuel rails, red w/ black writing and black w/ red writing.

Which colors came with which cars?

My '01 black convertible (used) didn't come with any. I think the previous owner yanked them before he traded it in. Yesterday the dealer installed new ones for me (free of charge, of course). I got the black ones. Just wondering if my car originally came with the red or black ones.

can anybody help me on this?

Only the Z06 came with the red w/ black letters. Good luck.

Oh, okay. That makes sense. I was thinking I got the wrong color. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

I painted mine red because the red accents a black car so well.

Actually, there is a third version too. The '97s and '98s came with two fuel line slits on the driver side.
