Thought my C5 looked kinda naked on the sides. Found these badges on Amazon as key chains. Eliminated the chain and mounted as shown. I think it looks spify!

It's only here on the forum that anyone has any idea of which emblems go with which cars. It's what leads to friends and family giving thoughtful gifts that have no association with the recipient's car. Jackets, hats, and coffee mugs with anything from a C1 to a C7 emblem in large scale view. Non-aficionados, not a one, cares -- and if you like the emblems, then you shouldn't care either. I'm very partial to the original C1 emblem. Not going to run it on the car -- mostly because I'd rather fewer emblems, not more -- but have no problem wearing it on a hat or t-shirt, or using a C1 coffee mug.

In the last year I’ve been gifted a hat, a wallet and a clock with C6 emblems on. Doesn’t detract from the thought and intention that went into it so it’s not hard to smile, say thank you and genuinely feel grateful . I think it helps that most on here would say they are a fan of Corvette rather than solely their model and will happily wave to other generations of Corvette rather seeing it as competition or one-up-manship.

These are the only stickers I have on my C5 and they say it all. Or as my dad always said "a Vette is a Vette". Cheers!!!
