An idea that my friend had was to get an older style Z/28 emblem and place it on the drivers side of the grille. You know offset like the old Z/28's were.

I had SS emblems on mine at first.. later I had some painted on and then XPEL'd over it to protect it.

Would be cool to have a Z28 emblem painted on (or decal) and then XPEL over it.. that way its easy to clean and wont get beaten to death by rocks and such..

You could have sign shop make some custom Z/28 decals for you. Also look through the year one catalog for different style of those emblems. I used the newer SS emblems on my WW grille.

The "Z" the left, the "2" neatly centered along the center division, and the "8" to the right. The emblem would have to be custom made of course. Contact Firebat for some help.
