Default whats your opinion on a "Y82" style WS6 Badge?

Well I have a sleak beak TA and I'm suffering from Badge envy I'm looking to spruce up the rear of my TA and I don't want to put the WS6 badge up there because im not going to pose as something im not. The WS7 and WS9 badges are kinda neat but kinda lame at the same time, No offense guys. So the RPO code for a formula is a WS9 but the RPO code that makes every formula made into a Trans Am is Y82. That got me to thinkin it would make a neat emblem and I think it would be easier to explain to idiots that it means my car is a Trans am. Rathere then Well the Ws7 means its a trans am but i put the Ws6 hood on there but didn't want to put the WS6 emblem, and they look back at you saying "wait what? its not a ram air?"

so anyways theres my explanation and heres my rough sketch, and yes i know i suck horribly at Mspaint


Also would there be any badge makers(preferably laser cut stainless) out there that would be willing for me to pay them to make this idea a reality?

Nice drawing. I still can't breathe from laughing so hard. Take the idea and run with it though. I have a base Trans Am as well, but I put a "Hurst Equipped" badge on one side and a GTO "5.7" on the other. There is something out there for your Trans Am. Good luck.

BTW, I LOVE the Bird on your emblem. Classic.

Cool idea, but its not going to solve the problem with the WS7 badge you posed. Instead of telling them its a code for a base TA with WS6 hood you'll be saying "Y82 means Trans Am" then they are going to say.... "the door says Trans Am too" or that they knew it was a TA.

Any badge that isn't an actual WS.6 batch is stupid IMO. If you don'y have a WS.6 leave the rear end alone (badge wise)

ouch, I bought my TA because it was a steal with 36k and I didn't feel like spending 3000 more for the same damn car with a 600 dollar hood.
