ON a Sebring Silver C5

Used BLACK "soft" letters .. Neat, not pimpish

my C4 was black..used SS letters on it...

Too Darn Plain without the letters...

I've got the stainless steel front & back. I think they look great against the Torch red! Got mine at www.corvettesofhouston.com

You mean like the ones in posts # 14, 43, and 45?

totally, but opinions are like a box of chocolates...

I don't have them on my Vert, I never really gave it much thought. After seeing all these pixs I like the SS and would consider getting some.
