Does it bother you?
Does it bother you when you see fake rear Z06 vents tacked onto a regular C5, along with Z06 wheels? Or how about one of those Z06 look-a-like badges with a different word on it, even though it looks like a Z06 badge from more than 2 feet away? There are a couple of those around town (vert and coupe) and I always have to correct those around me that it's not a Z06 like they thought.
Corvette guys know it just an add-on, but does it bother you that others may be fooled? Just wondering.

To each his own, I actually took my Z06 badges off and had custom ones made by forum member Austin Barnett. Because the power level keeps going up, I elected not ot advertise it

The only time it bothers me is when they lie and tell people it's a Z06 or put up pictures on Cardomain, streetfire or whatever stating that it's a Z06 when it's not.
And the funny part is when you call them on it they say you don't know what your talking about.
