I'm on the fence about all of these. I don't think I care for the Z51 between the seats at all. I'm also concerned that those labels on the visors will look cheesy. I do hate looking at the painted on warning labels there though.

I believe the 400HP sticker and Z51 badge were made by a former Vendor here that also did not have permission from GM to make them and was forced to stop selling them.

The Corvette on the dash looks nice.....but agreed that it seems dangerous in the case of an accident.
