Thought about it, like a satin black... but ended up just sticking it on the car, I was impatient when I finally got it.

Lol, point taken, I'm sorry, let me change my original statement... "Debadging of badges I didn't pay extra to put on" 8)

Some guy tagged your car with a Navy sticker. We all know that Uncle Sam's canoe club is nothing compared to the USAF.

Speaking of UK front plates, I know someone with a Corvette that has fitted his front plates on swinging brackets under the front bumper. Anything over 20 Mph and it goes into stealth mode. Very doubtful its legal thou !!!!!

I have a front plate...its located in my trunk. The previous owner was from a neighboring state that didn't require them. I used my ghetto engineering and a set of zip ties to the kidney grill to get it inspected. Drove 3 miles from the inspection station, removed it and haven't looked back.

Although its illegal, it depends on the car you drive, and the cop you run into... VERY FEW corvettes run with front plates. But those ricer rockets scream pull me over. I just hope my zed fits more in with the more sophisticated crowd.

Great looking Z, especially without the front plate to interrupt the lines. :thumbsup:

So, a while back, I while I was switching to my winter tires, thanks to WLH. My neighbor and I decided now would be the time to paint the rims and calipers... Also, I threw in a picture of the forum sticker on my window, and a pic of the car as it is now. Dirty as all hell... it pains me, but we're expecting even more snow tomorrow... You can also see the full brake light mod. (I recommend to everyone, easy as pie) What do you guys think of the rims, calipers, and sticker?
