I got a custom decal made for the car today....it was only a few bucks,it sits low on the rear window to where you cant even see it unless your standing behind the car ( i didnt want to overdo the rice)its about 5"x 3.5"
anyways, its not overboard.......And i kinda like it.Itll look better this week when i black the windows out with tint and lower it with the springs also.

I'm not really into stickers but I think it looks cool. I don't see anything wrong with putting that on your car.

when the 390 was made a month ago......with a bad clutch and taking the car to only 5800 rpms.

the clutch was slipping on the dyno,has already been replaced.....and now i know that the ls1's like to sing higher than 5800.think thats more than enough for 10hp, and if not,longtubes and off road y pipe will be going on soon as well as tune and nitrous.

its just a sticker......dont hate

I like it. It might confuse some people though because that P sort of looks like an R in that second pick and I'm sure from other angles as well.
