Factory or not ?
I am looking at a '16 Arctic White w/ carbon flash stripes and red pin stripes on the outside of the big stripes
I could swear I've seen this before, factory option or ?.
I've got a 16 z51 Arctic White with the carbon flash package and carbon roof. It does not have the dual stripes on the roof/rear like your pic shows. I don't think that was ever part of the carbon flash package, so unless there was an additional striping package ordered (build sheet could tell) it could be non-OEM....
I just bought that C/F diffuser from a vendor, looks like APR Ver.2 Its beautiful in person. Like those stripes with the red outline. PS I would install the Corvette lettering back too.
Just noticed the red taillights too.
Are the oem stripes vinal or painted and are they cleared over?
That is a great look - even if it is not factory. Don’t mind the lettering being gone. Let them wonder what it is. Most people can’t read it anyway. My black 17 could use some subtle striping. White and black cars need some contrast.
Here is an image of my 2016 Z51 with Carbon Flash Option.
Just out of curiosity, why do some people, as above, blank out the license plate? That said, I also have the carbon flash package and the only striping is the front hood section behind the heat diffuser. The rest is scoops, vents, nacelles (behind your heads), side skirts and for $100 extra, the mirrors.

I think it looks great. Red taillights (they look brighter than they actually are due to photo), no letters (they ALWAYS gunk up no matter how often you clean them), and who-cares-if-it's-factory stripes. The giant wickerbill? Never liked it on my Z06 either but who cares what I think anyway?
I never thought of it as such !
Factory or not ?
