Dan Block, Chairman of Insurance King, honors his close friend and “Saved by the Bell” star by giving Bilicki a new cover that will pay homage to the classic TV show as he wishes Dustin to recover soon.

The rear bumper also displays a Dustin cup … with the words “Saved by the King” pasted onto the cover. In case you weren’t aware … Dustin stars in several of the king’s insurance ads.

Block tells us the car will debut in time for the NASCAR Cup Series later this year.
