Default Show me your Jake!

Would love to see what you've done with Jake racing decals, especially hood stringers..

Considering a hood stringer for my C7 Night Race Blue.

PLEASE INCLUDE WHERE YOU GOT IT, if possible..

Here's our OEM Jake hood stinger on the new 2017 Grand Sport. Hard to get good pictures as it is gloss black with Carbon Flash accent. Perfect accent to the Carbon Flash., splitter, spoiler, skirts, front side vents, and mirroes.

Richey Collision in Houston. They had the hood about a week to paint jake and then clearcoat entire hood so there wouldn't be any lines. I tried a sticker first but it was a 1/16 off to one side and I wanted to Xpel over it. I figured painting was only $200 more than what the sticker cost and if I ever need to pull the Xpel, I come out ahead by not messing up the sticker again.

It looks like it's the C.7R OEM Jake - I bought mine from WCC and really like it. For a vinyl decal, it's very high quality.

Oh ok for some reason the image of this one has everything dark in the opposite areas. Same layout but colors are reversed? Thank you for help and response! 💪🏼

Dealer optioned this car out. I drove 3 hours to pick it up. One reason was the matching Jake hood and wheel caps.
