"Jake" Skull Decals...
Someone gave me a set of the "Jake" skull decals...the sort you might see on the C6-R. One large and two small skulls. They look like this: (as seen at BadBoyVettes.com )
I thought about slapping one of the small skulls on my '03 Torch Red Coupe (without the C6-R part) just because it is such a cool design and is used by the Corvette Race Team.
The coolness of the design aside, I am not entirely into the idea of sticking something onto my car. Where would one put it? Where Z06 badges might go if it were a Z06? Maybe at the bottom of the roof pillar on each side? Somewhere down low and sort of out of the way?
Suggestions are appreciated.
Here is the car it would go on...I think a nice black skull goes well with black wheels:
EDIT: I've decided to leave it off. It just doesn't seem right to me.

Very cool looking skull. I would tack it up in the office or somewhere, but not on the car.

Cool looking sticker! Not anwhere on the painted part of your car though! Back window looks kinda cool. It would look better on your car if the decal was torch red. I love dark tint!

and way ahead of you. I'm in the process of some "slight" modification to the design to make it more C5 oriented. It will be engraved onto a polished exhaust plate blank via computer. More to follow in a couple weeks....
