I stumbled upon a video on youtube, and saw this camaro that has a rear panel that just has a Z/28 emblem... Looks like it's a completely new rear panel considering that usually it just says camaro with engraved letters. This panel looks as if it is completely flush with just an emblem. I was wondering if anyone else has this rear panel, or knows where I can find one? I'm looking for one to put on my '98 Z/28. Any input would be appreciated.

It's probably the stock panel with the lettering shaved and repainted and stuck a new emblem on it...

 

Ahh, that's a good guess... I was hoping it was just an aftermarket panel I could purchase. It's worth the work though, I don't know how I would go about shaving the rear panel. I have no experience with any bodywork like that. But finding a Z/28 emblem should be no problem at all.

 

You take a bondo or fiberglass and fill in the letters. Do a search for shaved Berger panel. It might pop up

 

Gotcha.. thanks! I'll probably have a body shop do it for me since I'm still new to body work and whatnot, unless it's that simple? If it's a simple procedure I'll probably end up doing it myself because it's hard to spend money on appearance instead of performance when your on a budget hah.

 

Ive seen this several times on different cars, it's just filled in lettering with the vintage z28 emblem.

 

Yea I'm looking through some threads now and I'm seeing it alot more... I really want this on my '98 Z/28, I think it looks great.

 

he is a member on here. i guess this is a pic taken from a video right? i remember watching this lol it was on his cam or something. damn am such a troll if this is correct not a fan of it tho. id go with the regular stainless fill ins. but thats just me

 

yea the chrome fill ins do look pretty nice but alot of people have that. I want something different ya know?

 

Its pretty simple, but you need to give extra attention to the sanding, or you will be able to see a silhouette of the letters.

 

Hmm alright, thanks for the input man!
