Much Cleaner...IMO
Decided to remove the "Corvette" letters from the back. I think it looks great with just the cross flags.

The Corvette lettering on the rear is tacky and adds no visual appeal

Looks clean. Are the letters metal, or plastic?

Looks good
Cleaner look (and less "stuff" on the a$$ makes it go faster - you know, less weight and areodynamic drag)
And if they can't figure out what kind of car it is - screw 'em!

Looks good! The letters aren't needed to tell what kind of car that is, it screams for itself.

I sort of like the fish...I'm undecided at this point.
I removed the script because I thought it looked too busy on the back. I also think the C7 should have had a different "Corvette" font than the C6 corvette. They look the same to me.
