I remember seeing it on the concept artwork shown in one of the presentations at the bash and thought it looked great. Glad to see it made it to production.

Goodness sakes that's sexy. Can you toss it on a white one (and not the picture with the broken stripe)?

That stripe looks great.

Hope that is in fact an option.

I read the linked thread comments as well and there's no reference to it being a factory or dealer installed option. I went through the entire dealer list when ordering my C7 and no mention of one either. I'm a bit hesitant on vinyl decal type add-ons but that would appear to be what it is rather than a carbon flash painted application. I do like the concept of it, however, as it does tie the black hood vents to something. If not GM, I'm sure the aftermarket will come up with this piece.

Sorry guys, for me it makes an already too-busy design even busier. Yet another Corvette feature right out of the eighth-grade study hall.
