Default Final touches on my Torch Red.....

I noticed a lot of owners with the front fender side spears and I liked the depth it added so I put them on this past weekend. Very happy with the look.

Looks nice I love Torch red color! I like the hood stinger!!! I'm not crazy about the Stingray decal on the windshield but that's just my opinion and if you like it that's all that matters!

Yeah I'm not sold on the window decal yet either....I just put it on to see how it looked. It's likely to come off before summer

I had a 2010 that had one across the top of the windshield. It was removed before I purchased it. Certain ways in the light you could see where it had been. Don’t know how long it was on before being removed.

Gorgeous, simply stunning and agree with gmarcucio on the windscreen decal.

I like where the OP put the Z51 sticker on the fender vent. I usually don’t like such stickers but that one looks good.

Yeah, I wanted to get a Torch Red C7 but everyone around me including the spousal unit told me it’s too showy in a bad way.

Starting to look overdone, ditch the Stingray in the windshield and it will be good.

I agree the Z51 sticker does look good. I wonder if they make a small Stingray sticker like that?
