Thanks for your opinions, but back on track!

Does anyone have any more pics of this being done?

Thanks!

[Besides, I like the C5 emblem much better than the C6 emblem.

Putting different emblems on cars it wasn't originally intended for is kind of "ricey" to me. [/QUOTE]

Yep, I guess adding the C6 emblems to a C5 is differant than adding C6 wheels to a C5, or putting ZO6 wheels on a FRC, Coupe, or Vert! You guys all make me laugh.

I am sooooo sorry. Can you find it in your heart to forgive me. From here on out, any time you post a thread and ask a question, I will see to it that I only answer your questions and not editorialize or share an unsolicited opinion.

I retract my previous post - and here is my answer as it should have been......NO

I love the look of the C6 emblem on the C5. Grond looks great!! Plus it's a heck of a lot easier to clean than the C5's emblem. Purists will always chime in and say "no" but I figure unless your into trailer queens you may as well do what you want. At least then you have what you want, and not what everyone else thinks is right. There is a lot of mods out there that I really question as to how anyone could put that stuff on their cars. But it sells, and people are happy with their purchases so the stuff keeps getting sold. To each his own, and don't let others tell you whats right or out of place.

In Fact I would say NO!!! My C5 only has 1500 miles on it and I like keeping my cars stock, That is just me. If I want a LS7 I will just save my money and buy the Car. And I can see one on my future Ok it may be a while but I can see it
