Default Install OEM Carbon Flash flags

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:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/131192177041?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
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!

They look they were made for CG. I assume they look even better IRL. Thanks for the pics and info.


Cheers.

Glad to share my find...

I'm pretty sure I read that carbon flash crossed flags will be an option for 2015 so these must be those part #'s (I guess)...

They look great Glen
