Well not an emblem, but I don't think anybody else has this, a custom Key, no hanging bells or stuff to jingle while driving spirited.. I have a black one that blends into the dash, and I also have another red one with a quick release... I think it looks cool.
previous owner bought this setup and had it installed by a local corvette shop, with the exception of the powerflow exhaust, he put on B&B bullets instead I sold the diablo,and blackwing, in favor of a Vararam, and ecs dyno tune, last year at Carlisle. He never put on the badges that came with the kit, and sent them to me.

The custom key is cool....but the carpet dash pad needs to go IMO.
That does look very cool. Any details you can share on who did it, cost, maybe how it was done?
Sure!! Cost was under $80. I did it myself.
I started with the factory lic plate cover, then fiberglassed the cover to smooth out the letters. Then with the factory emblem I traced the shape and extended about 5 to 10mm. Then cut out the outline, smooth out the edges, then monted the emblem on plexiglas. I sanded the back side of the plexiglas with 200 grid sand paper ( to give it the frost look) then mounted the emblem on the smooth part of the Plexiglas.
On the actual nose of the Vette I mounted orange LEDs and hooked them up to the parking lights. The other color LEDs (blue) are connected to the day running lights. And that's it!! Well I forgot to mention the paint. But you can see that. Haha!
The carpet dash is just to protect the dash from the Sun, I too like the clean faux leather dash, but I don't want one that is cracked.. Think of it as wax for the dash, but just a hell of a lot thicker, But thanks for noticing...
