So i was messing around on my 2001 vert yesterday. I got some of those letters to put into the corvette indents on the front and back. I started on the back. I put in the "C" looked pretty good. So i put the rest on. Well....i get to the "E" and there are no damn Es in the package..LOL!

Guess i should have laid them out first. I also destroyed the ones i put on when i took them off.

I would have titled my thread "pissed" instead of funny.
But since it's not my car

My set was missing a letter also about a year ago. I contacted them and they gave me a refund.

Perhaps you should have contacted the vendor and asked for some assistance before pulling off all the letters. They may have been able to help you out without you having to buy another set.

You shouldn’t have removed the letters. Now people won’t have any clue it’s a Corvette.
