Default Best looking Z28 emblem on black car?

I am basically tired of my factory Z28 emblems. Since my car is black, you can hardy see them. I am thinking of going with the chrome ones to go well with my billet grill and wheels. Other than that, i thought about some black ones outlined in red to match the calipers. What do you guys think about which would look best on a black car? Or is there another good looking option that i a missing?

There are a lot of different emblems you can choose from, such as old school Z/28 badges or "Z06" style Z28 badges. It just depends on what kind of theme you're going for.

I really love my "z06 style" z28 badges. Purchased my badge from muffinbuster on eBay. Amazing mirror like stainless steel.

2nd gen Z28 emblems would look sweet on a Black 4th gen. On the fenders, the red "Z" would pick up your red calipers. The streamlined design of the 2nd gen logo will also fit better under the tail light.

Plus, I haven't seen anyone use these on a 4th gen. A lot of 4th gens have the 1st gen Z28 emblems.

animalSS~ those Z28 badges are going on my car when i get home the 18th i LOVE those badges...Can't wait to get them on. Especially on my fresh black paintjob

P.S. they are not decals to the above poster^^^ they are badges that you buy. I shaved the tabs off and put double sided tape on it. they are SPENDY if you buy them new. i think i paid $115 shipped for 3 of them but they look nice

+1 For C6 style Z06 badges. I have them on my '95, but I don't have pictures on the side emblems, only the back. Check out LandonZ's Camaro, he has them on his black Z.

I have custom "ZO6 style" ones made from muffinbuster. All styles look good.

This is all I got so far. When I put my 402 in, I think I am going to strip off the side ones, and leave the one on the back to see who will mess with it..

Anyone ever consider these?



I think they would look neat on a 4th gen.
