Default Special Edition <28

I am now the proud owner of an extremely limited edition Chevrolet Camaro "<28"... I broke the top off of the "Z" when I was drying my car Now I'm just trying to decide what emblems I should get to replace it. I don't really like the Z28 Z06 badges... they seem a bit too bulky to me. Any other suggestions? I was thinking about possibly just debadging everything... but that is only an idea at this point. At any rate, I don't know how long I can deal with my left-side-only limited production car.

You can rip them all of or have a custom graphics company make you a custom set for your car. They wouldn't be bulky (thin as vinyl) and it would be unique...

BTLFEDSS posted this site and I think I am going to order a set of emblems for my car. Kind of pricey, but they are very unique. www.mastach.com

Those ones from Mastach.com are the ones that I don't like very much. They seem like they would look too gawdy... dunno, maybe it's just me. The custom graphics idea is interesting though... does anyone have any suggestions or ones they have made?

Have you considered the old-school ('69ish) emblems? Other than those or the Mastach ones, I'd say debadge for the sleeper effect...

I agree. Go with the first-gen emblems or just debadge it. The Mastach emblems look kind of cheap to me.

Could possibly just come up w/ your own script and paint 'em on. Or talk w/ a vinyl company and see if they cant cut you 3 about the same size to replace the fender badges and the rear badge aswell.

1970 Z28 emblems look great. I just posted a thread recently with some pics of them on my artic white 94 Z28. I think that you would really like them, especially if you have chrome rims.

Here's another vote for '69 Emblems. And I'll admit, I found the 2 sides and 1 bigger emblem for the rear for WAY less than $100 on ebay.
