Default GTO 5.7 badge on a 4th gen firebird?

Ok Im getting my 94 transam painted, I want to put a badge on it, right where the WS6 badge should be, Although I have firehawk wheels and a WS6 hood, I don't want to put any of those things on it. I was almost set on getting some sort of lt1 or ltx badge from emblem pros, but I remembered the 5.7 GTO badge. Its silver, to match my ramair decals on the hood, and a lot stealthier than say an lt1 or ltx badge saying "hey look its almost like an lsx but please don't spray my distributor with water" I see plenty of pictures of the badge on Camaro bergers but none on firebirds. Anyone have a good pic for visualization? That's all I really need I know the part number and where to get them.

hmm it will have to do, I saw a picture of a gold colored transam with it, but it was a really bad picture and I cant find it. It does look good there.

personally I don't care for badges, to me they just look tacky and forced on 4th gens.

I too don't care to much about badges. More of a less in more kind of guy. But I like the idea of the GTO 5.7 badge; a lot actually.

yeah that's what I'm thinking they sell Alot of badges out there, most are tacky. I think I'm gonna go with it, the other badges I was looking at from emblempros were just a little too much.

Badges are for member's only jackets that list how long you've been a member to your local Harley or Corvette Club....not on the side of a car.

People really don't need to know that you have a 5.7 in your car....unless you're doing the badge for yourself....then do you need to be reminded it's a 5.7? The same goes for windshield decals.

Just my opinion.

haha I know its sort of redundant. But Not trying to clutter up the car either, I have no stickers besides the ramair decals on the hood, and Im not one to put stupid stuff in the windows, hurst equipped plaques, badly faked WS6 badges, etc. I think i might go with it.

I guess just ignore "stupid stuff" Hurst Equipped Badge. But seriously, do what you want to your car. Nobody on the other side of a keyboard should have any influence on what someone does with their car.
