Default Where Is Jake On Your Vette?
Where do most of you guys put Jake at on your vetts? The back bumper, back glass or the front of your car. Photos would be nice also. I can't decide were he sh ould go.

I'd be willing to bet that owners who put a "Jake" decal on their C5/Z06 might make disparaging remarks about import owners with decals on their cars.
I wouldn't put a decal (other than oem stripes ) on my car either...but, it's the owners car to do with as they please.

Although I've never been big fan of stickers. I've got a glossy dark gray carbon fiber Jake on my black semi-gloss exhaust plate. (smaller size) Before I stuck it on the exhaust plate, I positioned red reflective tape under the eyes. I like the look. Cool at night yet still subtle.

I have a Jake in the lower center of the rear glass. Jake is has nothing to do with the ricer groups. If you follow ALMS, you would know that it is on both of the C6R Corvette Racing team cars. I support Corvette Racing, so therefore I support Jake. Besides it my car and if I want a Jake sticker on it that is my business.

I have seem a lot of mods done to cars on this forum that I would never think of doing to mine, but if the owner likes it, that is all that matters.
