photonhunter Taking a Warm Up Lap Registered: 08/05/07 Posts: 72 Loc: rhode island	Due to some unplanned off-roading excursions last year, I had to have some body work done on my car. While they were at it, I had them debadge the car, too. It might be heresy to some, but I like the C5-as-sculpture look.

Chewy Full Throttle Member Registered: 04/06/03 Posts: 2892 Loc: North Augusta, SC	If you had just posted the pics and asked us to point out the 'problem' it may have taken me a while to notice they were missing. While I wouldn't prefer to leave mine like that, it does look good. Just don't go putting any Ford emblems on it and you'll be OK. _________________________ 2007 LeMans Blue/2-Tone Gray MN6 Coupe, 3LT, Z51, QX1, CC3, R8C Mods List

Don't worry, my first car was a '55 Chevy (neither of us was that old at the time, me or the car) and I've kinda been partial to Chevys ever since.

Chewy Full Throttle Member Registered: 04/06/03 Posts: 2892 Loc: North Augusta, SC	My first car was an '83 Horizon. At the time I loved that car, but I've been leery of Chrysler's ever since. _________________________ 2007 LeMans Blue/2-Tone Gray MN6 Coupe, 3LT, Z51, QX1, CC3, R8C Mods List

PHLYNLO Full Throttle Member Registered: 02/05/07 Posts: 246 Loc: Mandan, ND	The industry will have to go a long way to come up with a smoother, better looking design in future Corvettes. Yours is an example of good design. _________________________ Save the Wave & Keep on Vettin' Love our 50th. Anniversary Coupe!!

Even though the front plate is required here they just don't seem to enforce it. I'm sure they have more important things to do. _________________________ Dan
