Default crossed flags ghost

the other night, i was walking out to my car, and the dew started to form...it looked like an image was there, so i paid more attention to it, and i noticed that it was the crossed flags logo...i thought it was so weird to have it right on the hood..it occured to me that the logo from the hoodliner musta prevented the dew from forming in that area- resulting in what you see in these pics...

Jayson,

You are the 2nd one to report the ghost Vette Flag on the hood. Seems when the cold air hits the car the flag is thicker then the rest of the hoodliner and therefore the outline comes out.

Good to see you posting.
