Thats a tuff one, Im in the same situation with my Z.I like it when I pull up next to some dipshit and they get all stuck up thinking my car isnt anything special. Till I show them my tail lights. At the same time Im a label ***** and want them on. I guess its your personal preference in the end.

I think it could go either way. If you plan on other mods like wheels and so on that would tie in the black then i say go for it. If not it doesnt really matter (it wont not match). The only way i would leave them off is if u take off the side moldings too. I guess u paid for them, why not put them on?

I'm a fan of badgeless cars. If someone thinks your car is a V6, who cares? I love the SS badges but any other f-body badges look better off IMO.

I like black emblems on a red car. I just parted out a 1998 Trans Am that was red with black emblems and I thought it looked pretty good. I just sold the front bumper license plate filler on ebay. You ought to check it out: 98-02 Trans Am Front Bumper License Plate Filler
