Darth Vader borrowed my C5!
I actually saw a couple at carlisle and they looked really mean, so I joined the bandwagon. Notice I still haven't taken the carlisle sticker off, maybe tomorrow. My new exhaust should be getting here soon too.

Looks great. 
I often thought of blacking everything out on mine. Getting it painted more like a satin black, not real shiny, with rims to match and tint as dark as you can get it. I would never do it, I love the Vette the way it is. I really like black wheels! That mod may be in my future.

If you do take the sticker off tomorrow, make sure that it's sitting in the shade for a while before you attempt to peel it off. My parents' sticker required half a bottle of WD40 to remove the adhesive because it was sitting in the sun all morning. Mine was in the cool, dark garage and it peeled right off. FWIW.

I'm so happy he's still alive! 
And see... he's not so bad... look at how great your car looks!
