Unless you really are Clark Kent you probably should not be sporting the logo.

Gotta say "no". I could see this on a themed show car MAYBE, but otherwise, nope.

Sorry, but even Clark Kent wouldn’t want that logo in his C5.

Pretty much everything about these covers is wrong; the color combo, the diamond stitching and, of course, the logo.

The workmanship looks looks pretty good, though.

The "taste" of some Corvette owners is just beyond belief sometimes.

SO let me ask a more productive question...

... tell me more about the quality of leather you are using to make these covers. As someone who buys from Springfield Leather Company, I'm curious what you're offering for the money.
