I could change the word Corvette to a different color and print them with a dark background? (glen e)
they can be printed on a refrigerator type magnet if that could be attached somehow?
Could someone give me a measurement of the visor label?

I wonder why most everyone spells Stingray with a small ‘r’ ?

It is properly presented with a capital R
See any logo with StingRay on it. Tadge himself has pointed this out in a presentation of the car as a differentiator from either of the two prior spellings.
One of many examples...

New Idea.....
I've ordered 2 of these, they're 4" x 6" flexible refrigerator type magnets. They can be trimmed to size and attached to the visor with double sided tape.
The photo is low quality as I took it off the computer screen, the actual item will be clear. What do you think?

Some background and a head's up....
Back when I got my Z06 in 2007, I found a guy on the web who made visor decals that stuck right over the warning labels already there. He used the cross flags & Z06 logos, an outline of your car (color matched to your particular color - mine was JSB) and a saying (choice of 3-4) - the one I chose went something like: "This Corvette Z06 has 505hp and is capable of a top speed of 198mph. Please buckle up, sit back, and enjoy your ride"
There was also a saying available inferring any female passenger should remove any restrictive undergarments and hand them to the driver to be safe....cute, but not for me as I was in a relationship.
Anyhow, bought them, applied them, loved them. When I got my ZR1 in 2010, I tracked him down again and inquired about new decals.
He responded that GM legal had sent him a "cease & desist" letter for using the trademarked logos - so he did similar ZR1 decals for me, but had to alter the logos so as not to infringe.
Bottom line is, if you are doing for yourself, I think you should be OK; but if you are using the logos & selling - GM will come after you...so be careful! They are *VERY* protective of their trademarks!

You make a good point, I'm simply planning a DIY project for my own car.
I'll add one more possible idea I have for personal use only
I was able to source a Stingray plaque, Aluminum with 3M adhesive backing. I'm thinking I could apply it to a piece of flexible material such as a
cut to size piece magnetic of bumper sticker, paint it black and adhere the plaque to it and attach to visor with double sided tape

LOL....find a bright colored insignia and tape to the under side of your ball cap bill - now wear it for a couple days and tell me what you think.....same situation here...

Thanks for the correction. Perhaps I'll start spelling it STINGRAY (all CAPs) from now on.
