The fish are one of my favorite part on my car. With that being said, the “Stingray” script you put on looks really nice. It’s a classy mod that unites new and old. Great Job!

I guess I don't get why people dislike the stingray logo as it looks sharp IMO. This looks good, but I prefer the factory look. Props for doing something different.

In my very own and most humble opinion, those Stingray emblems do look a lot like a real modern guitar. Soooo mine were removed the first week I got it. I prefer the clean and unadorned look.

Looks more like a stylized electric guitar to me; I got rid of it/them completely.

Yeah I'll give you that. I still dig them though. GMs biggest mistake was the Corvette lettering on the rear bumper. Gone immediately...and that's not to say you had to choose to only remove one thing lol.

I have the script on my 71, but probably won’t put it on my 14.

I like the "guitar"!

So much so, that after a deer strike, I sawed it off an kept it before the body shop could dispose of it.

But, then, I'm not a de-badger in general.

Of course, it's your car but that looks outdated and out of place to me.

I don't hate it, but I think it makes the car look slower

I'm not a fan of the Grand Sport logo either and I really hate the Corvette Racing skull logo.

It clashes with the styling of the car.

Some of the C3 guys put the C7 fish on their cars, so I guess it is fair play .

The script looks nice; however, I think that the original Stingray had the fish also: Autoweek did a feature on it in the last week or two.
