Default [Pic Request] Shaved rear emblem...

Believe me...it is with great reservation that I ask this group for pictures of their shaved rear ends. Please note...that I am only interested in seeing pictures of C5s with the rear emblem removed. Keep your pants on. Thanks in advance.

Of course I'm prejudiced, but I think it looks much better with it off.

I removed mine when I had it wet sanded and liked the look better with out it. It's easier to clean and polish with it off also.

The rear does look pretty good without the emblem.

I really like the rear one shaved off. What is involved with doing it?

Damn, these Vettes look awesome.

Maybe I should have them fill in the 'Corvette' lettering while they paint my lower valance black.

It's only held on with double-sided tape...no holes in the deck lid to worry about.

Take some monofilament and "saw" it off. Then some "Goo-Be-Gone" to remove the left over tape residue.

Buff the area good and re-polish.
