Does anyone have a picture of a satin or possibly carbon flash stinger on a gloss black car?

Decisions, decisions...

Certainly do. Vehicle also has ceramic coat and XPel. Carbon flash stinger decal. It looks great - subtle but there

In bright sunlight

In normal daylight with some shade

We originally bought a carbon fiber. Didn't realize our hood insert was carbon flash. The black part is a matte finish. This is an OEM Chevrolet part we bought thru West Coast Corvettes.

While I do like a more pronounced stinger on the car, I have to admit the one on yours looks very good.

Thank you. Depends on what effect you want - we wanted to go for a more stealth look. Good luck with your decision making.

All that really matters is that you get something gloss black... since they get beat up on real drivers and have to be resprayed or replaced once in a while anyway.
