All of my vehicles get de-badged, so this would be counterproductive for me.

I'd just as soon apply bumper stickers.

Then drive the corvette? This is a good plate for those who drive their car once every 3 months and always bring " I have a Corvette in the garage" during conversations.

We Vette owners get a bad rap as it is with the stereotyping and everything.Advertising is just feeding into that.

I have one of those on my work truck. Best of both worlds. Nice SLT 4x4 for work and my vette for after and trips. Won't drive the vette in the winters up here.

I'd rather use it to frame a picture of my Vette & hang it on the garage wall.
