Default Officially sporting Jake Skull!

Put it on my baby tonight. Got it on the rear hatchback window near the bottom! Was at a gas station and a C6 came by and asked me where he could buy one. I said give me a second... went to my car and had the envelope with an extra couple of them and gave him one.

Corvette Love!

What do you all think?

Forgot to thank Cruzzn, wouldn't have been able to have them without him!

How about near the air intake under the engine bay? Like the new ZR1 has it...

Figure out how it was developed
Here's a link to the story at Bad Boy Vettes about the origin of Jake
