Don't like the look, too cartoonish.

It's ok on a race car but looks juvenile on a base car with all seasons. The irony is over some heads.

I won't go so far as to call it silly. If you like it, go for it. It'll never be on my car, though. I think having race car graphics and such on a street car is an affectation, an attempt to say "Look at me!" To each his own, though.

Same here.
I will admit, I am a "No sticker" guy though and I think all stickers are terrible. I like the clean, low key look.

I don't have the jake logo on my car, but the stinger hood version on the c7-r looks cool to me.... I do have at shirt with the jake logo though.

I don't get the attraction of skulls. I know some people have them on jewelry, clothes, etc. Just not my thing.
I realize Jake is "racing", but again, not my thing.

I follow and attend Corvette Racing events but have never been a fan of the whole "Jake" thing. I have Corvette shirts/hats, etc. but none have the Jake logo. A personal preference. I agree with the comments that a stock street car plastered with the logo is kind of tacky. To each his/her own.

It kinda combines "
Corvette Racing " with the "
Punisher " logo... It looks ok, nothing wrong with adding some fun to things.
I like Corvette racing so im ok with it.
