If the vette letters are decals just use your hair dryer to heat them up a bit before peeling them off.

I think I saw alot of the decal stuff on Ebay. Most of the folks selling them can custom make what you want.

The last set of vette FRC had the CORVETTE recessed down in them, they need to have the letters filled in will epoxy or something like that,the factory vette one also need to have a couple slits put in them to clear the f-body fuel lines and such. This is one reason why ready made ones for our cars cost so much $$$$$.
Now the decal you should be able to go to any place that make signs and lettering for cars and buildings and have a set made the way you want them and in what color you want.
