Hmm, remined of my September 2013 built C7 Z51 and folks wanted a Z51 sticker since there were none on the car! The C8 has it on the calipers! Back in 2013 I got this license plate:


This is My Current Grand Sport Plate

Make sure you get a Corvette banner decal to put across the top of your windshield too.

Any source for 3LT emblems? How about NPP?

And I'm sure there will be a big demand for a BV4 (Personalized Plaque) emblem. Then you could have a plaque bragging about your plaque!

Yep, that will start the 2013/2014 discussion just like Z51 stickers. It's clear, unlike a Grand Sport or Z06, which are Models, the Z51 is just an "option" for the base car.

Unfortunately for Insurance and our personal property tax, unlike NPP, wheels and many other options, it's noted in the VIN (as is trim level!) The car value increases so insurance companies/Local Property Tax accessors can get more money!

I think it is no longer identified in the VIN as it was with the C7. If so, that is likely a good thing for insurance as my company quoted a price at least 50% higher for Z51 than the base car IIRC. I hope I am right anyway since I have a Z51 at status 3000 with no new quote from my insurance company!

That seems odd. Maybe 50% higher insurance premiums for a Z06, but not Z51, after all, the Z51 has no additional HP and only adds $5K to the price. I’d call back and double check.

I contacted my insurance agent. No quote for me without a VIN. Allstate

Technically, the model is Corvette. GS, Z06 & ZR1 are trim levels & Z51 is an option pkg.

"Badges, badges...….we don't need no stinking badges!" You asked for it and here it is!! From the movie "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" for those not familiar with the cult of "No stinking badges."
