To each his own..It looks out of place on the so called C7 STINGRAY so it probably looks out of place on the C6.

Why do some guys lower 4 x 4's? To test the skid plates? Why do women wear push up bras? Why do we park on the drive way, and drive on a parkway? Such are the mysteries of the world.

Why should anyone really give a crap is the real question. I guess the C6 Forum is now the "Mod Squad" monitors.

Not saying I would put one on my C6 and if I should move up to a C7, that would be my first mod, removing the little fish on the side, but who cares what someone does to their car. To them it made sense to add it.

I still have the chicklet on mine, but I don't like it. I just left it because I'm lazy and I want to keep the car stock.

I dont have the chicklet. Maybe the previous owner did away with them. I wish the previous onwers had left a list of mods, upgrades or maintance etc. like my NNBS Denali came with.

yea...the stingray badge is just wrong.....but I do however like the Jake chicklet(and I am not really a fan of slapping jake all over a vette) but I don't think my 2012 came with the GM chicklet or else it was removed by previous owner....

The guy doesn't realized just how much he has de-valued his ride.
Not to mention - the laughing stock it now is.
