Must remember the script change is a dealer installed option and subject to screw up. There is another thread with a member whose script was screwed up by the dealer.

Great point. Buy the letters from a discount online GM parts source and do it yourself. That's what I did. The kit comes with a template and you can take your time and easily perform a flawless installation.

Hi,
Where did you order this kit from. I recently lost the "V" in my rear script... not sure what happened but after car wash I got home and it has come off somewhere along the way.
My rear script is in Red.

Google the 8-digit part # and comparison shop various online sources.

Rather than contrast, I went for the blend-in look.

My 2024 had the red script put on at the dealer and was flawless on install. It was a $375 up charge. My interior is adrenaline red dipped and I have the red Z51 brake calipers. I like the red script way better than the black it came with.

I offer a couple other alternatives:

-Keep the black lettering, but install it on the diffuser for the subtle black-on-black look while still keeping the lettering
-Go with aftermarket font of some type

I think GM should have done the Stingray emblem on the rear the same color of the lettering ordered. It looks odd to me that you’d have white or red lettering with a black fish.

I love a blacktop HTC. I just don't understand why they didn't extend the black on the pillars a bit lower until it "meets" with the rest of the body. It looks like the back of a Karen haircut.

For some reason, I ordered an optional white script on my 2023 Hypersonic Grey C8 and it arrived a few weeks after I picked-up my vehicle (it's a dealer installed option, vehicle ships from plant with base black). By the time it arrived I decided that the base black script looks best and never used my white script.
