Aftermarket "Flowtie"?

Does anyone know if someone will start making/selling these? I thought they look awesome and am sure some others agree. Any interest in these?

My question is can you REALLY tell a difference between a standard bow tie and this new "flow tie"?

It's a great way to make your bowtie black and functional!, who knows, maybe it might increase our 1/4 miles by a tenth lol

haha no, youre not gonna notice anything. on a street car anyway. i guess the ACTUAL Flowtie on the Z/28 lowered average coolant temps by a few degrees but nothing crazy. its just cool looking.

But with no condenser on the Z28 they have better airflow to the radiator already.
