I think you only have two options. There are cuton decal kits to go over the OEM emblems, or have the emblems painted. All OEM Z28 emblems are black.

Im paiting mine silver.
Take them off: use a hair dryer - heat them up and peel off

Paint them: Get a body shop to give you some paint in an aerosol and paint it yourself or just have them paint them, shouldnt be much $.

Glue them: 3M makes an adhesive tape and an adhesive glue you can use to remount them.

Post pics how yours turn out.

If I were doing this, I'd buy new emblems and have a bodyshop put a real paintjob on them.

You might want to use the tape. Someone posted a while back that for the glue to work it 'melts' the clear coat. Don't know if this true but wanted to let you know.

Id try and stay away from the RKsport emblems. For one the company is way way way overpriced, but on my old camaro I had 2 sets of badges from them that faded to brown color within a month of being outside, not even in the sunlight directly. I called them and they actually told me that I could not send them in or get them replaced since they were already on the car.. Asked how the hell I would know they would fade if I didnt put them on. They replied, maybe you should do research before you make a purchase..

Stay away from Rksport if you can.
