Which center cap look better with carbon flash emblems-2015 caps or 2017 caps?
I have ordered a NEW Z06. The center caps with black wheels and Carbon flash emblems stock dark black like in picture 1 on the 2017 however in 2015 the stock center caps has some chrome trim in them even with the carbon flash badges illustrated in picture 2. Which center caps do you guys think look better on the black wheels with carbon flash emblems and TORCH RED EXTERIOR Thanks Dave.
PICTURE #1 BLACK CENTER CAPS
PICTURE #2 BLACK CENTER CAPS WITH CHROME TRIM

I like the ones with the chrome trim. Nice bit of contrast.

I had the top as stock on my '16 and replaced them with the chrome trimmed ones on the bottom. They "woke up" my base all black wheels with silver brake calipers with some contrast .

^^^What he said. I think the chrome lugs on the black wheels look silly. I changed mine out along with "coloring" the exposed aluminum under the lugs. It completes the look of the car that otherwise has zero chrome on it.

Dave, your enthusiasm is commended. Personalization of one's Corvette is a long standing right of passage. Perhaps the best thing to do is, wait until the Z06 arrives, familiarize yourself with the beast, walk around, drive her, take all her beauty in. Then decide if what to modify. Easier said than done, as the excitement of delivery is overwhelming....

Easy. If your car is a 2017, you use the 2017 centers...if it's a 2015, you use the 2015 centers.
