Default New Emblems, Tell Me What You Think

im thinking about buying these for my car. they are real carbon fiber emblems the one for the bumper i can get with any color bowtie or plain im thinking plain. i think they are pretty cool, and would flow better with my car then something like stainless.

trying to lose some weight? lol sorry, i dont like them. Don't get me wrong, they look like quality peices, but I would prefer stock, painted, or polished emblems instead. I just don't get the whole carbon fiber thing...

dont spend to much on them unless you like them. They look ok to me, and if you think theyll flow do it.

Don't think it would look good on your car. Maybe if it were black or white

Dont listen to the haters man! I think they look pretty good for Carbon Fiber. People tell me all the time that the stuff I do to my car looks rice. Personally I could really give a **** less. Have you held them up to the car yet to see what the will look like with the paint? In the pics it looks like the light is hittin on them TOO much making them glare but I think when put on the car they will look sweet!

I would keep the nose emblem and replace the Z28's with V-Flags to match the nose:



Yes, they came on CAMAROS...

Or, go with an old school emblem:

1974 style like mine:



or a first gen:



But have the whole emblem sprayed in black with clear coat (or even just satin black) to get the look you are going for

Then for the nose do what another member did and use a shaved down first-gen nose emblem and paint it if you want...
