Re: Camaro Emblem Required

All I am saying if it comes from the factory like that, my first mod will be the "grill mod" where the bowtie goes, and I will somehow fabricate my own Ribbon, unless it is an SS (i.e. SS badge, no bowtie). But, even then, too many Chevy's are an "SS" in my opinion.

My stepson and I built the car together and he wanted the SS emblems. I actually prefer the std emblem which was a Camaro specific version of the Chevy bow-tie. If they'd have had Z/28 emblems in 1967, I might even have went with those because its more inspired by the Penske Trans Am Z/28s than the SS Camaros.

Re: Camaro Emblem Required

I'd like to see it on there but not the front grille. I think the bowtie looks good up there. Maybe shrink the work CAMARO on the fender a little bit and stick the emblem next to the word. I think that would look alright.

Re: Camaro Emblem Required

Here's a Camaro Emblem I drew up:



I think it would look perfect on the grille of the 5th Gen.
Even changed to include the standard gold bowtie, it'll still look good.

Alternately, I would like to see a return of the "Camaro, by chevrolet" emblem on the drivers side of the hood, above the headlight. You could possibly incorporate a small flag into it.

Re: Camaro Emblem Required

I thought I was going to be the only one that noticed that huge, ugly, gold, bowtie.

Re: Camaro Emblem Required

I would not get to hung up on emblems or what it is called like in post before we went on it being a Z/28 or SS or something.
Scott said along time ago when it came back and if it did it would be a Camaro like a vette is a Vette and as you saw all that is on the fender is Camaro nothing else. We will see what GMMG or SLP does with it. They were both there along with Tom Henrey and Matt Berger

Re: Camaro Emblem Required

Well... As long as it will not get that little GM emblem, I really don't care that much. :blah:

At least I think those GM emblems they now put on every car look kind of tacky... :blah:

Re: Camaro Emblem Required

I really like the Camaro emblem and would like to see it on the nose, just like it is on my 92. Perhaps someone should start a poll where we can vote on the issue.

Re: Camaro Emblem Required

I honestly believe that there was a real decision to NOT put any emblems on this car so that no distractions were in the way of seeing the car as a Camaro first and foremost. (they were probable afraid there would be a wrestling match break out amongst some of us knuckleheads... )

See, it's an SS. I told you they were the best.

SSs suck, thats why it only has 400hp. Z/28s rule!

BS, SS are the top model of every other car!

That's cause they all fall short of deserving the Z designation. (push)

Zs suck! (push back)

Oh yeah?!?!?!?! (puch to stomach)

You sonofa......(punck to face)

(bump into soemone else) Hey, stop ruining this moment!!!!!! (knee to groin)


well, you get the idea

Re: Camaro Emblem Required

anyone else notice the camaro emblems on the shirts of some of the (what i assumed to be) chevy employees at the unveiling? that right there gave me a certain sense of calm as to whether or not the emblem will be kept.
