Default Carbon Flash Fish

I know the OEM numbers for the carbon flash front and rear flags are 23183715 and 23183712. Does anyone have the OEM numbers for the carbon flash side rays and the rear Corvette lettering? I like the dark flags with the white and red inserts so I'll stick with OEM. I want to get all OEM so the rest match. Since they quit making LRG it will make my C7 kind of unique. A 2014 with 2015 badging. The only other things I'd like to change are the grill strip and I wish my wheels were Carbon Flash not just black. Later after the wheels need touched up I'll paint them the right way. For now I'll just Plasti-dip the chrome strip.

Here they are, but they are not available as of a couple of weeks ago. I couldn't wait so I painted mine carbon flash.

23183706 - Stingray emblem in Carbon Flash (Part number comes up but not released)
22996232 - Corvette Letters for Rear - (New number not yet available)

Info from GM Parts Outlet

Thanks Glen, but I believe the OP is looking for the Stingray fish emblems.
You can however buy the carbon flash c7 flags at any GM Parts supplier. I ordered mine from GM parts outlet for around $85 for the front and rear set.

Yes they are, I couldn't wait for them to become available so I just bought a new set of the chrome fish and letters (wanted good adhesive backing) and painted them carbon flash myself. Looks just as good as factory. I do know that when the carbon flash fish go on sale, GM Parts Outlet has them priced at 16.95 a piece.

Wonder how'd they look on LB?.. I have the originals (pulled off when I had the car condom installed and left them off).

What letters are you referring to? Someone posted about installing Stingray script where the fish were and I kinda liked that...

Nah, just had a few left over, but if you can buy them for 16, it would make painting them foolhardy and wasting my time....LOL

I just ordered some stock fish and painted them Carbon Flash myself (Glen E has great thread on this). I then did the corvette letters on the back. Then I ordered a matte exhaust plate kit and did the same. Very easy and saves a ton of money. Most of all, for me, I really enjoy the satisfaction of doing things myself.

Thanks for the numbers. I'll wait until this winter to remove/install them so I just needed the numbers to start looking for GM's release to the public. I want all OEM so everything matches. By winter they should have them at GM parts stores. Is the lettering number just for the stock/shiny item? Once again thanks for the quick response.

Looking at the 2015 in Shark Gray I'd say they will be available soon. Ray's, Flags, and Lettering was in black chrome or carbon flash.

The part number for the lettering is supposedly for the carbon flash. They told me it was a new number, but it was not released yet.
