Default opinions on which fender emblem to go with on a widebody?

just wondering what emblem you all thought I should put in the fender hole on my c6 widebody. First off, can a bodyshop just fill it, cover it over, and make it dissappear on carbon fiber fenders? that would be ideal. If I have to put something there, I'm not doin the z06, z51, or ls2 badge. any other options? whaDDA ya think?

Just want to commend you for not putting Z51 badge on your car.
If you have to have them painted anyways, I would just get the holes filled.

I'd say just get it filled although the z51 (Zr1 like) emblems look really nice. Maybe a custom 378 emblem if nothing else?

I agree at filling it..... I did the ZR1 fenders/widebody and think it looks cleaner without any emblems. I had a Z51 emblem prior to the widebody.
This is what it looks like clean

Nice on-track shot of your car at Homestead.

Fill it! There are already too many Corvette logos on them anyway. Or you could add this one...

One of the best, most competitive races I have ever attended was the European GT1 event at Homestead (I think it was in '97?).
