Jake is too trendy and does not go with a C3.
Jake is also a bit too over used. I would not put it on a C5 or 6 if I had one.

Alright.. flame...

Totally agree. It will be tacky in no time, better for a C5 or 6 I guess.

It will be like that "heartbeat" thing Chevy did in the 80's; after a short time:
