so I just finished replacing my chrome emblems and flags with carbon flash replacements tonight , but ended up leaving off the stingray emblems on front fenders as I sort of like the clean look without. Anyone else? Thoughts?
Point well taken . My chrome was already off when I bought car so I guess it just looks natural without . But I certainly appreciate the reason behind it
The first things I removed from my all black Stingray and gave them to my granddaughter who painted them bright purple and put big googly eyes on them. I think they ended up part of a Lego creature menagerie in the end.
When my 86 year old mother saw my car for the first time she asked why I put guitars on the front fenders. LOL!! I seriously thought about taking them off after that but decided to leave them on. For those that have removed them I do like that look.
I would have preferred the sixties script logo, but I am proud to be cruising in the Sting Ray tradition. Badge on, Garth!

If I had a Stingray, I'd debadge. But the Z emblems are staying on.

no they were already removed but I replaced the others with carbon flash and was deciding if I wanted to add the carbon flash stingrays to the spots where the others used to be that’s all
Personally, I like leaving them as GM built them, however people changing everything on Corvettes over the years makes the old originals all-the-more special.
I had mine on for a year but eventually took them off. I appreciate what they represent, but I was tired of explaining to people what they are. Looks more like a mini guitar to me.
