Saw the Corvette Museum's GS with this stripe so I tried it on mine... still undecided. What do you think? Done in vinyl so I can peel it off

Sorrry for the crummy cell phone pic.

Hard choice. hmmmm....If I had your car I wouldn't keep it, but it's not bad enough looking that I would tell you it looks ugly and you should take it off.

It's too busy looking and reminds me of a medieval symbol more than a car symbol.

I hear ya... If you seach for the National Corvette Museum 2010 GS you'll see one in white. Did a great job copying the original design but just didn't get the look I was hoping for, I knew it would either look the ***** or completely stupid... unfortunately I will have to agree with the rest of you.

The original looks good, the center part is barely visible so it doesn't look so busy. If you can pull that off I say go for it.

Jake just looks dumb with the really long teeth. I'd stay away from those particular stripes.

Wow, that actually looks awesome...

Id re-do it, with black and gunmetal in the skull, as opposed to black and silver.

Yup, I agree the white car makes it... I noticed the GT1 editional cars have that skull in the stripe as well. First/last cosmetic mod... go fast goodies now.
