I've tried to figure that out myself. Had one rocker emblem and needed the other. Hawks had a set of them so that took care of that. I'd order both and send back the other or use it somewhere else.

Check Classic Ind. and you should find the correct emblem and I am certain that Silver would be the correct color. I bought the lower fender emblem and Silver matches.

My guess is you don't know the cost of these emblems.

Re: Need help on z28 emblem color/name

Thanks guys, my rocker panel ones are fine, i am not replacing them, so i need to match them. Per classic industries an 87 should have the gray one, i am trying to keep original. I dont want to buy 2 because of the cost. Its hard to tell by the pictures in the catalogs the color. I kinda thought this was a problem in the past.
