Because.. you know. The airbag cover shoots off into your face when the airbag deploys.

Too big, and the top of the 'C' doesn't sit flush. Looks kinda cool otherwise.

Actually not. The cover blows back into the windshield and not the passengers face. The force of the airbag going off might cause the emblem to come unstuck and have the airbag launch it into the passengers face/body.

I dont really like it since it doesnt even really match the theme of your car. You got like 3 different emblem types going on. Also when I saw it, I got the impression it was saying "CAMARO Air Bag".

newtons first law

Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it.


this means if the emblem became unstuck it would continue to travel in the same path as the airbag cover which would be towards the windshield.
