I've got to get some Jakes for my '96 Impreza and paste them on the front fenders, like WWII fighter-pilot kills, for the number of Corvettes I've smoked in the snow.

Racing toy models that can't move doesn't count as a win--sorry.

Well, I know that this is a subjective mod, but I did get a compliment on the "smiley face" and "C6.R name" on the side earlier today. And you know what . . . it is a C6.R.

Yes it is white. Only problem is that Mike from Vettestripes.com got into trouble when he gave these away if we made a donation to St. Jude Childrens Hosp.

GM and Bad Boy Vettes came down on him. He can no longer make them even to give away.

Skull on the back is tastefull, but the other one's are not. Corvette owners are getting to be ricers with all the stickers.

Thanks Brian, for the 1/2 compliment, but, some would say that your idea of Jake "on the back" is riced up also. See where the difference of opinion's differ?

Obviously, just kidding to make a point. Make it your own. I think it looks great!

Looks good! I dig it. Even the C6.R on the side doesn't look bad.

To each their own, but in this case I like the skull on the back window...obviously.
