I think the C5 emblem is even better looking than the C6's emblem! On second thought, I think the C5 has the best looking Corvette emblem ever.Tom

Still have the lettering on the rear facia. But no nose badge or trunk lid badge (Specter Werkes Vert). I like the cleaner look. And I like the look of that silver one with the rear facia letters filled in and smoothed! But my rear facia IS fiberglass. Body shop said if they filled it, there was a good possibility it would eventually crack and show that it was filled.

I would think the fiberglass would be stronger then the factory one, you cn put as many layers behind as you want, i dont think you would have a problem.

I got so many ideas stacked up, I'm not going to be done modding for a year.
