Default considering new emblems

Anyone already gone this route? Considering using 69 SS emblems in place of current ones. Not sure about the rear emblem though. Think I might go with a fender one in its place instead and a polised stainless bowtie. Any thoughts? I have a 99 black SS.

I was really thinking of new emblems for such a long time while my car got painted. I ended up with just putting a silver outlined "SS" emblem and left everything badgeless.

I have hated my emblems since I purchased my car. The black emblems get lost on a NBM car. I tried some chrome emblems but they were not right either. I decided to go with these stainless emblems. These are suppose to be the exact same size as the originals. Please excuse my poor photography. I got three of these plus a stainless bowtie for the back.

Those things are nice!

BTW, they are about 1/8" shorter in length than stock, but they are the best ones you'll find anywhere.
