Z-51 Emblem feeback
To the Vette owners with the Z-51 package, DO you prefer putting the Z-51 emblems on your car or do you think it's "tacky"? I've seen some with the emblems on and it doesn't look half bad.

But it's a different story for the C7.
Right now, the C7 Order Guide says the Z51 option is an "Available Model."

So I'd expect the C7 w/Z51 to have a badge -- just like a GS or Z06 or ZR1.

Generally, I dislike them. Except for mine.

Would you put a 3LT badge on your car? What about other options? If not, why would you put a Z51 badge on it? 
If you're trying to impress other Vette owners with a Z51 badge it ain't working, and non-Vette owners have no clue what it is.

It's your car do what you like to it. The only place where having Z51 emblems are a big deal is on this forum.
For the record I have the Z51 package (as if you couldn't tell by my name) but don't have the badges. The previous owner put LS2 badges on the car and I kinda like them.

I don't see the point of advertising Z51, unless you're hoping some rookie mistakes it for a Z06 or ZR1 due to lack of knowledge. That being said, the emblem in the photo appears tastefully done, it's just not for me.

Tacky!!!
I have a Z51 convert and would not put one on my car if they paid me $500 to do it. I cannot even stand all the extra badges, gills and scoops that come standard on the GS model, cheapens the cars look IMO.

How about this emblem on your brand new C7:
