I like it! Looks great on the black.

What's the red colored bar in the headlights?

Looks like "stingray" script to me.

Looks good, but would recommend something a bit smaller. Looks somewhat overwhelming and detracting from the vent and hood due to its size.

Maybe a smaller scaled version?

Flat black decals would look a lot better.

The red decals on black gives it a little to much of a "Sticker Look".

The red seems kinda overwhelming and detracts from the cars good looks.

A beautiful car,.. but the decals should be a little less noticeable.

I like it very much but most people won't have a clue what it means. Only a fellow Vette owner will understand it. But as I said I do like it alot. Oh, and by the way "thank you" for getting rid of that ugly silver bar in the front grille. As I have said before what in the world was GM thinking???? It just doesn't go.

The red goes well with your calipers and overall color scheme. However, I would definitely not put that on my car. The Stingray script on the headlights is even worse.
