Would it be ricey?
If someone replaced their 01 Z06 emblem with a 02 "405HP" emblem......keeping in mind they did the necessary mods to get to 405 HP and didn't tell anyone they had a 02?
A friend of mine just did it.

Re: Would it be ricey? (The Batman)
I could perhaps see going the other direction: The "Z06 405HP" --> "Z06" - for someone that didn't want to be tied to the "405" if they've significantly changed hp via mods and wanted to stealth a bit... still, the emblem is what identifies the "year" of the Z06 and monkeying with it is a bit sacreligous to me. But to each his own! It's a free country! :D

I don't know about ricey, but I guess we all want to be something we are not on ocassion, it is called fantasy.
With respect to the Z06, only a few people would understand the significance, and they would probably think less of him for doing so. They rest could care less. :confused:

Yeah, be proud that you have the first year. After all, people will not even be able to see the side emblems with the power you are putting down. :D

Tell your friend to do what he wants. Who cares if a bunch of middle-aged men associates his car with a food...it's his car.
In fact, if you want to put 22" dubs on your car and a 4 foot wing, all you. You are the one that has to drive it, not me.
I think people should be able to butcher their cars however they see fit, they paid for it afterall and ultimately if its an eyesore, they gotta drive it.
Lastly, putting ONE emblem on a car is rice? I think not. You all need to get out more... and I don't think any car with 385+ HP is "Rice", thats just me though.
The very definition of "rice" is all show and no go. The Z06 doesn't fit the build, sorry.
