Should I keep these on my car? I have no emblems on my car except for these. I can't decide if I like them enough to keep them on the car!

The mesh and emblems look okay but, in my opinion, you could really clean up your car by dumping the side moldings:

Actually don't mind those at all. Was thinking of something similar once my A&A gets installed.

Blitz,

If it's truly Supercharged, then it's ok...I like it and also like the ones that have the HP markings. It's appropriate IMO and just may keep the Mustangs from messing with you.

I just voted that you should keep them on. You have some light accenting on the back in the form of the Corvette inserts, and you have some bling under the hood. Having some accents on the side like that completes the theme in a mild way. Plus, it subtly lets everyone know it's not an average Vette when it comes to those idiotic Stoplight Speed Racers Wannabes.

Intake, TB, Alternator, and bracket are triple chromed, everything else is polished.
