Looks a little busy to me. Also takes away from the sleeper factor. Doesn't look bad if you want to be flashy and race car looking I guess. Some might say rice.

what kind of decal sticky material?? how hard are those going to be to keep peeling off?? I like the 303 number text style better than the 316...

and I agree with Hexx... looks a little busy - I would remove the 5.3L V8...

Auto vinyl is extremely sticky provided it's applied on a 100% clean and wax-free surface. I've got decal overlays on all of my SS badges and i cannot even get a fingernail under a corner.

I do like the decal below the SS, but not the HP rating above it.

I'd like to see 2.8L V-6

Not that it would matter, these cars arent really race bait. Maybe some Type R stickers in the SS font? LOL
