Default LOFTB badges on a 98??

As an appearence mod, would this be acceptable even though I have a 98 WS6? I know it is technically not the last year, but the last body style and the first year of the last body style. Any opinons?

Well I think it should only go on the 2002 birds, since its technically the last year. But it looks good on any 98+

2002 is the last year yes, . . . but it is still "last of the breed" . . . . in any case, do what you want and what you like . . . . who cares if people throw a fit cuz its a 98 . . . . . .

Yeah, I have em on my 2000. IMO Last of the Breed would technically only entail the very last firebird off the line, since that's impossible, I feel it covers all the 4th gen family

I'm kind of a purist too. To me, it is like throwing Indy 500 Pace Car badges on just any 4th Gen. I say go with some similar, if you want that type of look, but not those exact ones.
