Just as a follow up, I ran out and snapped a couple of pictures to illustrate.

Here is the front fascia:

From: Calgary, AB. There's a reason why white was the only color offered on every year Corvette. Proud Canadian German Jamaican!

They look a bit big in the pics, I will gladly send you mine. Speaking of which, I'm glad they don't have any GM badges like the ones that the C6's got.

Are the dead fish on the sides installed with posts or pure glue/tape?

The Stingray emblems do not have location pins.

Just be thankful they didn't do to the vette what they do with their trucks and suvs - badges everywhere.

Trim level on the side pillar, 1500/2500 on the doors of the trucks, flex-fuel badges on the tailgates, 4x4/Z71 stickers on the cargo beds, etc. God its awful, I don't know why they see the need to do it.

I just got a chill down my spine imagining my future vette with a giant Z51 sticker on the rear quarter panel and a chrome LT3 on the rear pillar - ack!
