If you like it - do it.
But I'm in the "it's not a C7 or a Stingray" camp.

Ferrari
Just put a nice lookin' Ferrari emblem on there, it's not that either.
In other words, not something I would do.

Two Types of Vette People
your question and the responses with show you the two sides of the fence.
I am not a purist and like the fact that people will go outside the box
put the badge on the car and stand back a take a good look.
If it looks
leave it and if it looks like doo-doo...take it off
it is your car

I talked to a guy who had a 25 ft. Bayliner boat. He rebadged
his boat with Searay badges. He thought know one would
know the difference.
This kind of thinking does not make sense, whether you have

Good luck, it's your vette and my opinion.
