One on each break (oh, and that's brake BTW)? Even in the back? Must have had caliper covers or something.

Floor Mats - 2 LLoyds Grand Sport Corvette
Dash - 2 Factory

Door sills - 2 Factory
Exhaust - 0
Brake Calibers - 4 Factory
Sun Visors - 0 Grand Sport Cling on's - 2 to hide ugly yellow and black labels
Front Fender Badges - 0 Grand Sport Badges - 2
Steering Wheel - Grand Sport - 1 Factory
.............................Total = 22 ( 17 Corvette 5 Grand Sports ) and that's not counting the Flag emblems:
1 frt - Factory,
1 back - Factory
2 seats - Factory
2 Door Sills - Factory
2 Dash -Speedo & Tach Gages - Factory
1 between Exhaust.
.........................Grand Total: 31

LOL. I did the same sort of counting, but included both the word corvette as well as the logo. Forgot the total count, but on a stock car with embroidered headrests the count was over 30.

I don't like it filled in with anything, subdued enough.

I avoid repetitive stuff. Jake mats, Grandsport Sills, no flags on caps
So people are logo crazy!!!!

I may have underestimated mine too. I just counted mine by memory and I'm 63, so what does that tell you.

You guys with the logo counting are WAY under counting. Take a look at those factory door sills again.
