Are the two areas where it says CORVETTE painted or left as is? If painted, is that black? Very nice!

Looks like you forgot to paint the 2 stripes with Corvette on them. Are you thinking of painting that too or just leaving it original? BTW the rest of the cover is beautiful.

Yes, I painted in semigloss black. It was stainless before. I thought this popped a bit better.
