How do I mount retro emblems?
How do I mount retro emblems? K, so I bought some '69 Z/28 emblems off ebay. They're of good quality but i uhh wasn't expecting them to be soo heavy. They are made of some kind of metal and have 3 little nubs with bolts on the back and they're curved like contoured as if to go on a curved surface.
How do I mount these suckers? Before I got them I was planning on 3M double sided sticking them to the side of the car after dremel cutting off the nubs.. but I dont think thatll cut it now and do I need to worry about them being curved?
Do I have to drill my body panels on my '98 Z to mount them???

I have 64 SS emblems and I used 3M emblem adhesive which has been strong for 4 years. but you can use the 3M tape and it will be strong enough to hold as well. just alot of tape trimming.
mine have been on for about 3 months now, been power washed several times and its been as hot as 97 here. Just cut off the mounting tabs, then place a wooden block over the emblem in the driveway, whack it a few times with a rubber mallet to get them flat, and trim the 3M tape to fit. I did both fender emblems and rear bumber emblem in about an hour.
The '69 emblems need to be "modified" slightly to follow the contour of the fender. I have the 70-74 emblems. The red 3m emblem tape will hold them with no problem. I worried when I first put them on. They have been on for 3-4 years with no problems.
toofazt: the script Camaro emblem looks great. I have been thinking about those. I think I'm sold.
