I would love to get this dash plaque for my Stingray, without the "Premier Edition" script, and blue instead of green. Google came up empty, anyone have a source?
No idea as how to source the above however was wondering what the "personalized" dash plaques (the ones you can order from GM with your name as part of a new C7 order) look like?

Asked my wife to look into that. I really wanted to order it, but if I remember correctly, it was at least $400 for the custom one. I'm not exactly a cheapass, but I have limitations. However, in all fairness, I think it came with 2 identical plaques (not just one) and a 1yr NCM membership.
^ It's only a $200 option, off the C7 build website:
PERSONALIZED PLAQUE
$200
Offers the ultimate personalization of your Corvette®
Features a factory-installed plaque in the front center console of the dash that includes your name, the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and the Corvette crossed flags logo
Available on Sold orders only
Here's what the $200 BV4 RPO in 2015 looked like. You can customize the middle line with a limit of 24 characters. This option is specified at order time and entered into the system when the order is placed by the dealer, however the text to be put on the plaque is not specified at that time. As I recall, it was a few weeks before the TPW that a staffer from the museum called to request the text to be used. My order was not a museum delivery or a factory tour order.

Reason: Clarification
Well, the one in the photo came with the car, as they did all P.E.s, but I'm glad you like it!
I'm loving it, and see the one I found is actually yours. Didn't mean to steal your photo, but it was the one I liked best when I did a Google Image search.
I would just like something different in that space, and love that particular Stingray design. I'm surprised some entrepreneur hasn't popped some different styles out by now...
I never thought to google it, so I'm surprised to see it there. It's a public pic, now.
Now that you mention it, I'm surprised no one is doing truly custom plaques like that, with matching paint.
It seems like a natural for some aftermarket company to make a few dollars. I just can't see paying $200 for it. Fact is the Horsepower version is available for abut $90.

This used to be the case, but they've changed it for 2018. Even though it's shown as a $200 option while building your car online, when you go to the dealer to actually place your order, they're going to tell you that it's been discontinued. I had it on my 2015/3LT, but couldn't get it for my 2018 unless I went the museum route. Luckily, my dealership is run by a Corvette nut who took pity on me because my 2015 was *Harvey'd* while sitting in my garage. Anyway, they're throwing in the $900 museum option at no cost AND paying for my wifey and I to fly into Nashville.

I have the personalized plaque too, though my name is in all caps to fit with the consistency of the "Built in Bowling Green" title and VIN Number. Great option to get if you're going to make an order. If it really is discontinued, that would be a shame
