Default "By Berger" emblem?

I am doing the Berger panel on my car... I had the idea to buy one of the "By Berger" emblems and put it on there. I was going to put it on the left and the red bowtie on the right. Do you guys like this idea or do you think its too fake. I'm just doing it for the look and I would never claim that my car was a Berger, or even a SS. Should I skip this idea and go with a different one? If so, what should I put on the left side of the panel?

Here's an example of the "By berger" emblem...

In my honest opinion, I think slapping a By Berger emblem on a non-Berger car is like slapping an SS badge on a v6 or a z28, and no different than slapping a type-R badge on a base Civic.

I may have "outside the box" ideas for appearance mods, but there's one thing I'd never do and that's badge a car something it's not.

First off, you will NOT be able to purchase a "By Berger" emblem. They do not sell them unless you have a Berger Camaro, which you do not.

By putting "By Berger" on you ARE saying its a Berger

Try this instead http://www.hurst-shifters.com/Produc...minselection=0

4th gen "Berger" Camaros arent made by Berger Chevrolet, so there really isnt any such thing as a Berger 4th gen.

anyways that emblem is gay, so are all GMMG cars IMO

Granted they aren't made specifically by Berger, as they contracted out to GMMG Inc., but there are Berger edition 4th generation Camaros.

I don't think it was that outrageous #1. And #2, I assumed Berger was like GMMG in that GMMG will not sell you anything that goes on any of thier specialty cars, unless you own one. I now know that Berger is not like that, thats all. And yes, my car is nice!
