IMO, your choice was good for the location of the one. Looks nice!

I agree they do look nice but you can't tell the actual size of the emblem in the pic.

The emblems look good. But I'm not really digging the placement. They look like they're kind of in the middle of nowhere. Good idea though.

Thats exactly what I was thinking. on the TB would look great.

looks not bad on the rear like that, would like a shot showing the whole rear and maybe part of hte side too, jsut to see it better.

Just go to any pontiac dealer and tell them some kids stole your badges off your gto and you need one they'll have em. They had the SS Silverado badges the same year they came out available

Actually, you can just go to the dealer and ask for GTO 5.7 badges, or GM part number 92119040. They were $19 a pop, and I waited 2 weeks for the dealer to get them. You don't need to tell them they were "stolen" off of your car.

Just ask for them.

On GMPD, they say they can only ship to business address, so you're better off going through a Pontiac dealer.

Isn't that the same place as the WS6 badge? Does that look like it's in the middle of nowhere?

Not rice, 5.7 decals are a must have on your V8.

Yeah I don't think anything that says 5.7 could possibly be rice!

Now id it were 1.8......

Thumbs up

I think it looks okay, definitely different and doesn't look too out of place at all.

The only thing is the font doesn't match anything else on the car, but maybe it doesn't match anything on the GTO either.

On a scale of 1-10, I give it a 7. The uniqueness is a big plus.

I don't think it is rice by any stretch, but that decision is ultimately up to you since it is your car.

Thanks guys. I do agree that the font doesn't really match anything else, but it's still nice to have. I decided that the other one is going to be in the engine bay right in front of the driver side shock tower facing front.

Thanks again.
