Default Summit Racing Z28 decals?

Anyone try these decals out?

Wondering if they are double sided taped and if so, how well they hold?

They're not decals. They're OEM emblems which are held on with posts. You can cut and grind them off and add a 3M adhesive tape to put them on without having to drill holes in your car.

They have the posts ones on there, but the ones I posted are different, they don't have the posts.

On their site there is two different types. One has pics of posts, and says in the description it's bolt on, the other doesn't.

Here's the one that shows a picture of the posts.



Notice the difference in description and picture from the one I posted yestereday.

Anyway, you got them for 20 bucks, I'm sending you a pm.

They both have posts. The one you posted there is for the grill, thats why it has the backing plate. The first ones you posted have posts on the back too, trust me.

If you want the 69 Z/28 emblems, you will have to buy the ones you see there. Then cut the posts off, buy some double sided tape and stick them on. I haven't seen anyone who sells them all ready to stick on...

All it takes is a Dremel with a cutoff wheel and some double side 3M tape and hobby knife to trim the tape around the emblem. I put 69-72 SS emblems on my car and it only took a few minutes each to cut the posts off and put the tape on.

So, is there any specific type of 3m tape I should get, or all they all the same? I don't want the tape to melt in the 100+ degree heat of the summer. Also, how much does the tape run?

I picked up some 3M exterior double side tape from Home Depot. It's wider than the automotive trim stuff which is what I wanted for my SS emblems. It was like $4 for a roll that I was able to do all 4 pair of emblems plus have over half a roll left.
