Window Sticker Display

So here in western Pennsylvania it is currently 10 degrees outside, cold enough to freeze your nose hairs together instantly upon exiting the house. Car enthusiasts who live in the snow-getting states know how much this time year can drag on. Unless you are one of the brave ones who drives their Corvette year-round, I saw a C8 on a snow covered road last week, our vehicle based fun has been significantly reduced.

In an attempt to do something car related and fun (to me) I decided to spend some time designing a place to showcase my window sticker. I've had it in a drawer since I got the car in April and hadn't yet figured out how to display in a way that does the car justice. Chevy's online configurator generates some really nice, downloadable images and I wanted to incorporate them into a layout that highlights the car I specified and also gives the physical window sticker a place to live.

Image/link below, this is set up to fit into a standard 20x24 frame, and the physical sticker will end up being placed over the PDF after the layout is printed. Thought I would share with the class, thanks for your time!

That looks great. I would like to do something like that for my C7 but the resources you used probably aren’t available for prior generations of the Corvette.

Looks really nice. Wish I had your talent to produce that.

Take it a place that does picture framing. They can do a really nice layout with a frame and matting. Take a few nice photos of your car they can incorporate with it.

I designed the file to be easy to edit, meaning swapping in a different car, interior, sticker and background/logo colors should be simple (If the images still exist from the configurator or if you downloaded them previously). Only the 24 and 25 configurator images are currently available, so that does make it hard for the majority of cars to be accurate, but if anyone is interested I can try putting a new version with a different build. Thoughts?

It's very cool and well done, but mine is a 2024 and they no longer have machined faced wheels for 2025. I don't see where you can configure a 2024 any more so i guess I'm out.
