Default ? on rear lettering

What is the best rear lettering kit. My Z is yellow, so I was thinking red reflective. what do you think?

Also just got my plate, "ZO6 ZO6" it looks great...

just make sure you get acrlyic, or stainless or somehting. the vinyl ones are too thin and hard to install and dont look too good. I have a electron blue with mod red interior. I have red acrlyic front and rear and looks sweet.

Tough to make a worng color choice on MY---they all look great.

I also suggest you seriously consider the stainless steel, looks super, easy install, perfect fit, easy to keep looking new.

Whatever you choose will be absolutely right. :chevy :flag :chevy :flag

I have the red acrylic on my MY Z06. The only thing you should know is that they stick out a bit from the paint (don't fit flush). I personally don't have an issue with this as I just ordered the front letters. The red looks great IMHO. It really looks great with the red of the taillights.

JMHO but nothing looks better than chrome letters on a yellow car.

Got mine from West Coast Corvettes.
