Just a suggestion to C7 Stingray owners: Stop cheapening the car.
Again, as the thread title says, this is only a suggestion and obviously people can do what they want with their cars. That said, I'm having a hard time understanding why so many people are putting stickers and all kinds of other tacky crap on their Stingray.
IMO, it cheapens the car terribly and gives the Corvette a black eye. This sort of mod is seen on ricers and cheap looking cars. This car does not need stickers or emblems to distinguish itself from the pack. The car speaks for itself and there is nothing on the road remotely like it.
Just remember, we are all part of a club, so to speak. Please take that into account when you're doing something hideous to it.

Hmmm,
Been a member for all of 9 days and you feel you can lecture people on what they do to their cars?
Let me help you out a little newbie....Mind your own business and get off your high horse. You are in not the keeper of the "Corvette" name.

lol.....you will make friends QUICK around here
Here is a suggestion for your next thread...tell people how they must look personally to drive a vette...then you can tell them how they are allowed to think about their cars.
...oh, and what's your take on the color our cars should be?

That said, I agree with you -- stickers or badges aren't going anywhere near my car. But, you can put anything you want on yours. I haven't seen any stickers. I know Glen did a decent job with LT1 badging.

Irony is gushing from this post. You start a thread telling people what optional mods to do (not do), and then when called on it, you say "Hey, back off, I'm entitled to do or say as I want!"

I'm sending the underbody Neon Kit and the Spinners back. Can I keep the "Gas, Grass, ***, Nobody Rides Free" License Plate Frame?
BTW - We are all here to offer our opinions and all of us were Newbies at one time. Heck, I guess I'm still a Newbie myself.
Keep those fingers flying. They love fresh meat around here.
