Default Where should Jake be?

I have a small (4.5" including the C6.R letters) and a large Jake (7" with letters) stickers. I've seen some Z's with the small Jake below the driver side's tail lights. What do you guys think is a good location for them? I was thinking the large Jake can go on the hood just above the air intake duct, and the rear below the driver side's tail lights. What about the "C6.R" letters? Would you leave them off, and just put the "skull" on? The stickers are silver in color. No I don't want any "Type R" sticker on the car. These are silver, and not very conspicuous, but just enough for a visual mod.

Thanks,

I put little Jake on my helmet and big Jake on the tailgate of my 3500 dually. I saw some of the ZR1's that the GM guys were driving had a blue Jake with horns on the roll hoop. I haven't found a place on the Z that I really like.

Oh yeah, behind each window, forgot about that location. Looks real good for the 2 smaller Jakes there. I kinda like how you guys have the large Jake on the rear end, BUT, and I may be nitpicky here, it's kinda unbalanced, since it's not in the middle. I might have to be daring and put him on the hood, just above the intake hole.

Thanks for the pix,

Same here. Don't worry about the little bubbles at first, they'll go away in a few days.

Unless this is a competitive vehicle, the best place I can think of is your tool chest or garage wall, of course this is just my opinion.

I do have a large Brahma bull sticker on my door, so who am I to say anything.................

This was on my coupe, I have not added any jakes to the Z. I figured that the Ferrari guys got their little horsies, so I should have Jake on my fenders.

Don't have to worry about paint.
