New Badging, what do you think?

Ever since i bought the car the badging has bugged the hell out of me. The guys who i bought it from said the buffed out green color came from the factory like that... yeah try again. anyway i don't care for the 4th gen badges because they look to cheap for these cars. I decided on the 70-74 Z28 badging because i didn't care for the earlier versions with the slash.

I'm pleased with how it turned out, it should look alot better in sun light.

FROM THIS

TO THIS

Temporarily mounted just to see what it looks like, waiting till spring to put them on permanently.

Looks a lot better than those ugly green ones. I'm kinda partial to the 4th gen emblems myself though. But these also look damn good. Find a way to put an 2nd gen emblem on the back and maybe offset on the front grill and then you'll be

IMO.

no, im trying to decide what i'll do with the rear. thinking of just leaving the badging off the rear and doing a berger panel.

nice and clean that way.
