Custom Sill Plates - What's the Difference?
Ready to order my C7. Anyone have any idea what the difference is between a custom sill plate with Stingray logo and the standard sill plate? If you have pictures, please post. Thanks

The "Corvette" ones come standard and look great. There's nothing different about the optional, $200+ "Stingray" ones other than the word "Stingray" instead of "Corvette". How they justify the extra cost is anyone's guess.

Having just spent the $268 for the Stingray ones I have to admit that I like the Corvette ones better. The good news is that they do give you both sets but this is in my opinion a waste of resources. Much better off to spend this on a Curb Alert or something like that.

So if you get this option, you get both sets of the will plates? (Same as the mats?) if this is the case, I'd be interested in purchasing someone's unwanted standard plates. My driver's side plate is scuffed, and I'd like to replace it.

I thought this was the case, but I received them on my R8C delivery. The standard ones were in a sealed box. Not sure who installed them on mine, but they sure do look nice. Now I have a backup set too.
