I'm not a fan of badges that suggest factory packages or special editions, so I'd say either go with old school badges, such as the V-Flag (which I'm using under '69 scripts for fender emblems) or designing your own emblem and having someone fab it for you.
I do love those red tail lights though, I'll go ahead and give you credit for the inspiration now; I'd say that'll be happening soon.

I bought a pair of the "GM Mark of Excellence" badges, but I plan on putting mine in the general vicinity of where GM puts them now (of course, thats my current plan, it could change since you brought up this point).

Personally, I would go SLP on the left, and GM Performance on the left. Of course, this opinion could change when I see it...

My black SS has the stock emblems and the SLP on the left with the polished inserts from dragonz (muffinbuster). I think it looks great. I was afraid the polished inserts would look tacky with too much "bling", but once I tried them I love it. The SLP on the left balances it out nicely.

No disrespect, but why would anyone put the DICK HARRELL badge on their car if it isn't a car that DICK HARRELL didn't contribute to or produce? Isn't that what a poser would do?

You saw my car at Balboa, I didn't have the black outs or the "by Berger" emblem anymore.

Since some of the emblems dont come with any type of adhesive tape or glue what do you use that will stay on the car and last?

You can get some good double sided tape from any autoparts store.

I had the Hurst emblem but I took it off since I put the panel on my auto. I replaced in with the Dick Harrell one that you see in the above posting.

Its what I do...I'm a poser, on my spare time I pretend to be a skater. Its the same reason people put SS hoods on Z28s, and Z06 wheels on non Z06 cars they like them..

I put mine on more for the nostalgia of the old school Dick Harrell Chevrolet dealership and racing more so than the new edition Camaro that he had nothing to do with because he was dead.

But I understand your point.

I know that people like SS hoods and ZO6 wheels, but you're not going to badge your F-BODY as a ZO6 just because it has ZO6 wheels.

I train MMA but that doesn't mean I'm a UFC fighter.

I know you get my point.
