I want Museum delivery, but the standard "built for" tag. Can we do this?

Shane called me today as well 
and after talking to him I decided to go with just my name. I was considering my nickname for the car. But if I ever exchange her for a newer model I'd like to keep the plaque. Perfect for when I loose my memory...I am "an old fart" after all!

Hey Andy. Thanks. Lots going on with an elderly dad. I spend a lot of time on the road and as a consequence am having some back issues as well. My truck just doesn't drive like a vette. Just lost my mother in law two days ago. Freezer went out, then the fridge. Ran into someone with the coupe so it's in the shop. I just don't have time for the internet anymore. Hope you and Amy are doing well.

amazing how quick life can kick your butt. With baby, wife, work and shop there isn't much time to do anything so I feel your pain.
Hey Paul. Already have the plate for it - Blue Ray (it's night race blue). Completes my red white blue theme. I thought about Lisa's Blue Ray. Is that corny?
I thought about that too.

I would like to do the museum delivery, but I really want the standard plaque. As much as I like the NCM, I don't want their logo inside the car. I want the stringray or corvette logo.

When I ordered mine (for museum delivery), I had the choice of either plaque. You pay extra for the museum delivery plaque as it is an option. Or that was my understanding.

If you don't select museum delivery R8C you can still add a BV4 plaque. If you don't choose one of those two options you will receive the standard Stingray palaque.
If you select R8C museum delivery you will receive the R8C plaque and have your choice of personalization on the middle line as indicated above. If you select museum delivery you cannot choose the BV4 plaque and you will not receive the standard Stingray plaque.
There will be replacement plaques available from the NCM for the BV4 or R8C plaque if you choose to purchase one later - after the fact. They come from the NCM because the NCM is the designated supplier to GM for those plaques. I am not aware of the pricing or timing of these parts availability.
There will be replacement standard Stingray plaques available from dealer service and parts after the fact. Again, I'm not aware of pricing or availability.
You cannot substitute one plaque for another as part of the order process. The option you choose dictates which plaque you will receive on the car.

The NCM R8C plaque or the BV4 plaque (if you don't opt for museum delivery) is installed at the plant on the assembly line before the car rolls off the line. The option you choose determines the plaque you get.
If you don't select museum delivery R8C you can still add a BV4 plaque. If you don't choose one of those two options you will receive the standard Stingray palaque.
If you select R8C museum delivery you will receive the R8C plaque and have your choice of personalization on the middle line as indicated above. If you select museum delivery you cannot choose the BV4 plaque and you will not receive the standard Stingray plaque.

The base plaque is included with all models and it has the Corvette Script and the Stingray" script on it.
The BV4 personalized plaque has the C7 crossed flags to the left side and in the center says:

VIN: 1XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
The R8C personalized plaque included with the museum delivery has the NCM logo to the left and in the center it says:

I thought there was a third option with the stingray logo. Does anyone have an image of that?
Also, out of curiosity, what other manufacturers put the name plate in their cars? Is this a Corvette thing?
