Cool.

Always love a good DIY, but that's the first time I ever heard the the crossed flags called the bowtie.

I can appreciate others' need to mod the C7.

I considered the factory black trim crossed flags, but glad I stayed with the OEM chrome trim crossed flags.

Good job!

may I ask, what did you use to do the the red trim around your front splitter and side skirts, or is it airbrushed?

The previous owner did the skirt, I did the wheels. Both are just vinyl strips, so easily removable in fact, the only mods on my car that isn't easily reversible are the painted supercharger cover and valve covers.
