You can google them. The one for the rear has to be cut apart and reworked if you are gonna put it under the taillight.

I think it would be cool if you had some vinal made up to look like the old emblems. Maybe it's just me but I hate that emblems stick out from the body. I hate how they hold water, snag towels and look from the side. I even shaved my stock thin plastic ones. My older cars always loose them, cause they are worse on above reasons. It's best to get vinal stickers under clear on a repaint (or airbrushed if u know someone) but work well over clear aswell. Certainly no worse than doublesided taped emblems. Just my $.02.

Vinyl looks cheap, solid metal emblems are nice...

I got my 1974 style Z28 emblems off of ebay but they can be bought from the dealer or gmpartsdirect.com

I bought 2 for around $70 from Year One.

They look really nice, but the red on my Z is fading...I had the 28 part painted black where it used to be white.





I also had the Key hole and camaro letters shaved for a cleaner look.
Sorry about the crappy picture.

That would be dirt.

I took the car to the car wash, it had a lot of bugs on the front (out of town), I didn't have enough time to dry it, so I jumped on the highway to air dry it. Hey it's better than have bugs baked on to the paint.

Hacked up??? I processed this for a couple days before responding. IMO there is a huge difference between taking a part and reworking it make it custom fit where one wants it compaired to just sticking it where it will fit and being like everyone else. Z28_DAD you are living proof that what they say about opinions is true !

All i can say, is dont get the tacky viynl ones, what subtlez28 said i find to be totally opposite, the viynl ones look so cheap and phony, i forget the website, but when i was looking for my badges i came across the viynl ones and thought they were hideouse and i love the way the real ones stick out and have texture! Anyway, yearone or any of the above websites will do just fine for u!
