2023 C5 of the Year Finalist - Unmodified

Default Corvette Patch

Someone posted up a link to E Bay recently to a vendor in the Far East selling a C5 patch. I ordered one and it just arrived. It's pretty good for the cost of a few $$.

I just tried to leave feedback and the site has been pulled. With all the talk of GM hitting vendors hard on copyright I wondered if maybe this was an unlicensed patch?

Its a long shot but I wondered if anyone knows

Someone in the FAR EAST getting a license to produce a trademark? Highly unlikely!!

Don't worry they'll change their name or originating country or whatever and pop up once again.

I bought one last year from that site. Site seems to come and go frequently. I bought mine to put on the black strechable nose mask I have. It looks good and is almost the exact same size as the nose emblem. I scotch guarded mine to keep it protected from bug juice....

I got one too and tried to find the site with no luck at first. The flyer that came with the patch listed the supplier as OneStopPatchShop, but it's actually listed as 1StopPatchShop on the e-bay stores lists. I ordered a second patch, licensed or unlicensed it's a nice patch.

Leave it to GM to crack down on free advertising!!!

Now I know why they are alway struggling to make a profit.

What is with GM any other car or motorcycle company you can buy all the patches and decals you want. Take Harley Davidson they sell a ton of patches and decals through their dealerships.No wonder their sales are down they just don't give a s--t

I bought one of those on 2/27 and haven't received it yet. I checked my ebay and the entire listing had been pulled. I am guessing copyright voilation.
