The only thing that would be tacky is putting Z28 emblems on something that's not a Z28. I hate it when guys put WS6 emblems, or SS emblems, on their non WS6 or SS.

One little problem, you can't buy the new emblems. GM has restricted the Z28 parts to prevent people from building clones.

Yep. Emailed them last night about this in particular. He shot me pictures of the prototype they have already made and submitted to gm. Looks killer.

I'm sure emblem pros can do it, just email them. They don't have pics listed of everything they can do. And they can do pretty much anything you ask for.

Emblempros can hook you up. Roger can do just about anything you want and they are licensed to make GM products.

I wouldn't hesitate to run them on any z/28. They are a nice modern touch on a classic emblem. Best looking z/28 emblem made so far IMO.

I love the subtle modern twist GM has been doing to those classic designs. I run the new style SS emblems on my car. To me they are a nice subtle hint that it's not packing a big block or gen 1 SBC. They also match the Cobalt SS seats I installed in the car.

That said, my car is not a factory SS car. But I built it into an SS tribute shortly after getting it because I liked the look but it's not easy for a 16 year old to buy a true SS Chevelle even if it is the bastard child 71/72 instead of a 70.
