Stephen sadly, I must say put the R on the vette.....

I was talking with a Mustang buddy of mine <450+rwhp> who said he was having trouble getting anybody to race him. so he installed alteza's and can now pick a race on just about any honda nissan or toyota in town. With your blower and stock hood, your still faster than you look, put the R on the car and pick on some unsuspecting rice!

Chris

Oh yah, post lots of pictures of your R mounted firmly on the rear of the car just above the side slots.

EG, you wouldn't be the first to mix emblems:


If you look carefully, there is a C6 emblem on the nose and an Anniversary Edition emblem on the waterfall.

I am with you Stephen. The C6 emblem makes the C5 one look bad. I haven't had a good look at one yet. Are they plastic or what? One thing for sure it's a heck of a lot easier to clean the the ones we have. I bet that's why they changed it. One post above said he was thinking of cutting the circle off of the C5 emblem. I wish I had one to do it to. I don't really want to sacrifice the ones on the car. But after seeing yours without one on the front it might be the thing to do. To bad there's holes in the facia.

Well you have one supporter. I'd love to see the C6 badge on there just to see what it looks like. GO FOR IT!!! Take the plunge. LIVE ON THE WILD SIDE!!!

Like I said, not so great, but a quick and dirty way for me to see at least that I'd rather shave off the circle from my current emblem than get a C6 one. I'm one of those who, besides wheels, prefers a strict separation between generations of any given car--looks-wise, that is.

Can I interest you in some dice?





Serious if you are just worried about cleaning, which I still find hard to believe, cutting off the circle on the C5 emblem would be the way to go.

You speak foul of that which is fair beyond your thought, and not even little wit can excuse you.

To any and all Vette drivers: stick what the **** you like on your car, you paid for it.

To those who disagree, taste is subjective as well as objective. Many who modify their cars in order to be "different" often merely conform to what is expected and in so doing, their "different" becomes the norm. That is apparent from the number of people who come on here to seek an opinion but what they are really seeking is approval so no-one laughs at them.

So if I want to stick a new Z06 badge on my C5 Z06 then I will and if I want to stick an old Z28 badge on my new Z28, I will.

However, I'll be leaving my Type R badges on my Civic Type R
