There are many posts on the issue, do a serch on FRCs. Cutting is easy with either a rotozip or dremel tool.

Another FRC question. Is the "Corvette" on them just painted on, or it is actually 3D. Thanks

The CORVETTE logo is molded (sunk) into the plastic and painted red. If you want to custom make a set yourself and you don't want the Corvette logo, just buy them, and get some type of filler or bondo and fill in the logo, and sand it smooth, then paint it whatever color you want.

As for which ones to order, make sure you get the 97-98 C5 ones. These are the only ones that come with two holes for the fuel lines. All the other ones, and the Z06 ones have only one, and you need to cut the hole yourself. It can be done, but its just more work than necessary. The part numbers for the 97-98 ones on the left and right are:

12559261 and 12556455
