Default Bored with the looks... thinking some vinyl

I am bored with the look, want something more racecar looking.
I'm thinking "CORVETTE" in gold along the rockers.

Any got any neat graphics post a pict, hopefully I will get some ideas.
The lines of this car are so hard to compliment. I am worried about making
it look like a ricer.

IMHO "Corvette" on the rockers would really look bad.

What do the graphics on it now represent? The stripes on the fender we get.

You've already got numbers.... I think the only way to increase your "Shake N Bake" is to go all in

All I can say is it is a shame what some people want to do to a Corvette. Try removing what you have on the car now and you might like it.. OOOOOOOOOOOOO wait, Is that a Colorado plate on the car. Now I understand.
Just pulling your chain a bit, It is your car and do as you like, We don't have to drive it, You do...

Less is more sometimes. You draw that much attention it had better be as fast as it looks.
