Torn with the new set up

I recently added ZL1 spoiler and 45th tail light bezel but wasnt sure of the rear trunk black out on the new set up?Any opinion or suggestion is very much appreciated.

I would either go Black on the bezels to match the blackout, or white to match the paint, either one would work. Making the chevy symbol white on the outside/black on the inside would go a long ways also.

Thanks for the suggestion. I took off my plastic dip bezel and replaced them with 45th tail light bezel. I will definitely consider the bowtie white and black. I took off the rear trunk black out and this is how it looks.

I like it with the blackout and I also like the bowtie soooo much better white/black. It was one of the first things I did. Sorry for the large pic....but I like my set up a lot. Well...I'm planning in getting a new spoiler in July....but the blackout and bowtie I like a lot.

Without the rear black out its more clean. Probably new bowtie red outside and black the center?I have red caliper covers now I just installed few minutes ago. Changing the 45th silver matte bezel is not an option since its very expensive and I love it a lot.

Hmmm if it were me I'd do a red bowtie inside and leave the outside as it is, it'll match your caliper covers and also match your RS emblem on the trunk lid.

Thanks man!! I'm really liking yours as well.

I say do your bowtie red on the outside and black on the center. That would look pretty good IMO. Plus...I'm not a huge fan of the chrome on the bowtie on some colors and I think black/red would look really good on yours...especially with your red calipers.
