Default WANTED - Front License Plate Cover in Carbon Flash for Stingray

I would like to buy a front license plate cover in carbon flash for a C8 Stingray. This is the piece you remove from the front bumper to mount your license plate behind. It can have some damage. Needed for an experiment I'd like to try. Please PM me what you have and price shipped to California.
The front black cover that you remove by the 2 indents at the top that says Corvette. You remove it to install a front plate

Good luck finding it, I would think it would be somewhat easy to find one.

I thought I had one in my boxes of Corvette parts, but I was not able to find it. I do have two covers for a C7

I really thought I had one. I bought one new last year for $85. Good luck on your search.

I have one practically brand new. When I got my c8 used in Maryland it didn't have one. I ordered it and when I got it I saw the OEM front was painted Shadow Grey (as was all the other accents) so the carbon flash stuck out like a sore thumb. I got in touch with the original owner who actually had the OEM. He sent it to me. I paid 125.00 for it so make me an offer. I have the invoice from when I bought it and can send you any pics for verification

Your PM and e mail is not set up so I am not able to contact you. Also, you have no posts other then the one above. For security purposes, please PM me with a picture of your C8 with the cover in the picture and what you are asking for it. Otherwise I appreciate your response but I will pass.

I've looked through every setting in my profile and can't find anything about PM's or Email not being set up. I joined last year when I picked up my 2019 c7 but I guess I never posted. I can't PM you either. I'm not sure why unless it's because I have no posts.
If you want to email me it t.colonel@ymailDOTCOM.
