Opinions on windshield decal?

Not the standard Corvette adaptations, this one.

Yes I know it's small, the only front shot I could readily find, anyway on this

It's how it was originally prepped for Indy 500 and the Brickyard 400. The original was discarded before I got the car, I finally found the maker and ordered an entire replacement kit just in case.. the windshield decal is included. Your thoughts..

I was going to say no way but since it's a pace car and you are trying to "restore" it.... I could go either way.

I agree-I'm usually not a big fan of the huge decals that point out the obvious, but if it's going to look a little flashy from the side, you might as well go for the front, too.

I'm on the bandwagon all the way. Normally, no, but in this case definitely, YES.

Keep it off. Right now Chevy and GM overall aren't really performing to the point that I would call it an American Revolution. If you can find one that says American Recession go for it!
