MSG C5

I just saw this as an accessory on the Chevrolet Build It website. I've always like the Jake options. Anyone running this?

No thanks.

Not me... was never really into "skullz", even on the Corvette racing team. And these days I think the whole skullz thing is way past played out.

MSG C5

I never had seen it before either and I have been on the build-it site many times. The price is like $90 so it's definitely been Corvette taxed.

I agree the Jake skull can be overplayed at times, however I thought it was cool looking alternative to the standard plate and/or the personalized owner plate.

How hard is it to swap one of these dash emblems? My C7 still has the personalized badge from the previous owner "Build in Bowling Green Kentucky for Marianne M. Miles" LOL. I've tried tracking her down to see if she wants her tag back, but no luck. I nick-named the car Marianne in the interim. Haha.

You can just carefully pry the old badge off with a plastic trim tool --there are no fasteners behind it to remove. Then the new plate just snaps in.

Here's a youtube vid showing how easy it is.

I'm running that one.

My car was a museum delivery car but buyer backed out so it had a blank museum plate. Dealership gave me the option of a badge so I got this one. It looks great. I'll snap pics in the morning.

If you have a trim removal kit it's easy pop off the one already on there.

My eyes must not be working right...think I need some new glasses. I looked up this dash plaque with the engine specs and the price was almost $100. Maybe it was a misprint or something.

That $100 tag for a 2 square inch piece of “flair” is the reason I don’t have one — even though I like it. Oh well.

I had a dash plaque like that for my C5 although it was a lot bigger. I forgot how much I paid for it but I know it was nowhere close to $100.

I was about to order that smaller one for my C7 tonight, but when I saw that price, I remembered that I really like the one that came with the car!

Have not seen it before but I like it.

I thought about it as the monopoly looking cheap plastic car that came with my GS looks horrible and cheap. But at $100 🖕🏻

Great vid. Some cool guy must have made it.

The badge the OP shows looks good, but doubt I would pay $90 for it.

evoroadster

Its $82 on Ebay.

Just curious, but what do normal, off the lot dash plaques look like?
