You shouldn't ruin the stock ones taking them off if you take your time. Used WD-40 to soften the adhesive and a piece of dental floss to help 'saw' them off.

Go for it!
I just added(inserts) decals, but those look cool also.
If/ when I tire of them, I can just peel them off.

Or use a hair dryer to heat the tape up . . .shouldn't hurt them a bit if you're gentle.
And as far as putting these on - - what the heck, if you like `em, that's all that matters!
Go for it . . . .and then post a couple of pics.

Tape them overtop of the origionals and snap a few long shot pics and see what you think.

You know some people will like it and other will say "We don't need no stinkin' badges
"
Its your car. Do it if you like them. You could always remove them if you dont.

I noticed the Black Flags on the C6 in the Tony Stewart Armor All commercial and thought they looked pretty cool. That got me to thinkin' that the flags should be available in body-colored accents. Yours look GREAT!

I don't know that I'd use them but that hardly matters. If you like the look...go for it!
