Default Emblems on Berger Panel: Keep them or loos theme

Well, I've debated taking the Z28 and Blue Bowtie emblems off my Berger panel for awhile...

Now that someone stole my side emblems I am REALLY considering it for two reasons:

1) The back emblems HAD to have drawn the attention as there's no way they saw the side ones the way I was parked.

2) Using the back one on one of the sides would save me $35.

SO, I am trying to decide between the following setups...

AS IS with the 1974 Style Z28 Emblem and Blue Bowtie (MY CAR):



Completely clean with (other than the CAMARO inserts) NO emblems (BitViper's Car):



OR as it is now but with this V-Flag emblem under the driver side tail light:



Finally, I am thinking about REPLACING the Z28 and Blue Bowtie with the V-Flag under the passenger side...

What do you guys think? One way or another they're coming off so I can repaint it so it will be slightly darker and look like this one:

I would leave it clean, or put one of dragons z28 emblems in place of the blue and the 70's emblem. I really dont like the blue bowtie and 70's emblem you have on the back now, looks kind of tacky.

The bowtie is too large. I like the Z28 emblem though. If you had a smaller chrome bowtie, and the Z28 emblem was shifted to the left a little bit, I think it would look good.

Make it clean, anything other than the Camaro inserts is clutter IMO

Well, the cleans have it ! I will probably pull them off this weekend, re-spray the Berger panel, finish spraying my rollbar, wetsand the tail lights (never did it after I sprayed them red) and panel and then install everything...

Thanks for the input, I was on the fence but you guys helped me jump off
