I like the Corvette removed from the back for sure...I like the stingrays on the front but may remove them as well.

I was just about to start a thread, "Anybody removed emblems yet?".

I love that nice, clean look!

Removing emblems for the 'nice clean look', and then adding company web site addresses to the rear quarter glass is kinda conflicting ??

Hopefully someone will come up with a spoiler/air dam or whatever you want to call it, that is either paintable or black rubber (or a combination of both) to cover the fangs.

Yes and crazy thing is the Z51 cars only come with the outside under fascia black spoilers and not the center portion even though there are mounting locations for it.
I was told by GM customer care that the non Z51 cars had all 3 under fascia spoilers but not the Z51 cars.
kinda strange.......

Fish Store? I found it curious that you would remove this and that exterior emblem only to add your own exterior vinyl applique.

Frankly, yours was a rather flippant to reply to an innocent comment.

That's how it should be from the factory. There is just way too much going on with the Corvette on the back, and the fish side emblems. Lol. I've gotta make my way to 21CMC some time soon for some work!

Probably went to the fish store where those side emblems came from and purchased some nice strong thin fishing line to help pull em' off. Probably mixed in a little WD40 and what not to help with the double sided tape , then boom! Use the line to pull off the emblems!

WOW.... I don't believe in criticizing someone else's ride... we all have different tastes. If ya don't like something don't post some negative comment.

I agree with the OP. It's his car....his business he is trying to promote and Mr. sensitive needs to relax!!!!

Looks very clean I like it. Any chance you can take some more photographs of the rear and side profile?
