Default engine bay closeout decal

I just noticed this part availability two weeks ago. I just installed it.
I think the addition of some red is complimentary to the Silver Flare engine cover and slats.
I have the the two tone red/black 2LT interior and red brakes calipers as well.

I may need some fluid caps to finish it off.

Easy install

Those pieces do look good. Well done on the engine bay upgrades.

Which red does it match? Edge red or torch red? I think it is the latter but cameras and monitors can alter colors from reality.

I Googled it. Many for sale $209-275
$209 for a sticker? That's a Corvette tax of about $150 I'd guess.

Purchased directly from GM Accessories. it is $275 but there is a 10% discount on the site thru end of month.
Had it shipped to local Chevy store parts department.

And, its edge red. I have torch red calipers - but you need to have OCD to notice.

I'd like it all better if the new pieces actually matched the engine cover. I've built a lot of custom pieces over the decades to deal with such. Just sayin'...
