Default Source for Carbon Flash "CORVETTE"

Anybody point me to a vendor which can provide the CF "CORVETTE" text for application on the C7 rear? I've had no problem locating the dark OEM cross flag logo's (for front and rear) but the text is proving to be a challenge.

Thanks

Thanks..looks like they only do it in the checkered "Hydro-Carbon" design and not Carbon Flash.....for uniformity preference is to have it in CF to match the rest of vehicle trim.

Many threads on people painting emblems themselves if your a DIYer ... Doesn't look too difficult. GlenE may post, he's done some CF painting.

I guess they are successful now - I bought it for 34 in flash from them back in sept......spray paint is about $30 (base and clear)

what I'm waiting for is the true stingray font in badge form, right now just running a decal:
