OK... Here's the deal. For those of you that remember, I did some stainless steel Z28 emblems a while back because no one had any for thirdgens that looked worth a damn. They all had incorrect font, or the gay little bar that connected the letters at the bottom, or didn't have the slashes through the letters like factory. I ended up with some awesome emblems after months of CAD work with a friend and the manufacturer. They ended up screwing me on my RS emblems and my IROC emblems(went out of business and ran with my money), so I lost interest. I still have enough left to make 6 full sets. By full set, I mean emblems for both rocker panels, rear bumper, AND the dash. The rear bumper and dash emblems both have the little bowtie. I have a paypal account for ease of payment. PM me and I will let you know if I have any left. The first PMs I get will be first in line, since last time these things sold SUPER FAST. Anybody that ordered these before feel free to chime in. Sorry the pics are crappy. I am getting my car repainted soon, so I dont currently have any installed pics. There is no adhesive on these, so you will have to find some 3M trim adhesive tape to put them on. Some slight clean up may be needed on these emblems from laser spatter. They clean up easy with rubbing alchohol and a cloth. They are also the brushed finish like the factory emblems, not polished or mirror finish.
Glad you guys are happy with them. There was a lot of R&D to make sure I got the sizing right. PLEASE take some pics when you get them on. AND PLEASE use 3M adhesive tape, so you dont lose any.
All sets paid for and gone!!!
Thanks again guys!!! Maybe in the future I might decide to do some more but not any time soon. I already left everyone feedback, see ya.
J, your killing me with all this talk, I bought mine from you last year ... I still have not had opertunity to install them as the car is in the body shop!
Judging by the responce, you should do another run, and yes work on a nose emblem to finish it off the set; count me in for one!
Wow, they are in high demand. Maybe Xlr8torZ28 will make some more sometime soon.
Actually I am currently working with another shop to do some more. They wont be laser cut like the last ones, instead they will be done with a plasma cutter so the quality may not be as good. And the slashes through the letters will be laser etched instead of cut. As soon as the prototypes are done, I will post some pics. Thanks, Jason.
sweeeeet.... Its nice to actually see my work on a car other than mine. Loks good.
I had the mounting holes filled so that the side ones could be mounted direct. Now if I can just get the guy to paint it we can see how cool that will look! What size tape did you use on yours? Do you have any close pics? What I need is one for the other side on the rear that says ... 5.7 Litre H.O. 5 SPD

I wanted to do IROC and RS ones too. The original company screwed me over. And everywhere else I go, wants me to to acccept their idea of how they should be done. I want them my way and thats it. Everyone that bought the last batch was very pleased with the quality and design. As of now though, there are no more and probably wont be anymore unless I get lucky and find a shop I really like and trust.
I was doing some cleaning and found the emblems I was going to use on my car before I sold it. They have been clear coated already with wheel clearcoat. You can strip them if you want. I have enough to do the sides and the rear including the bowtie.
These sold like crazy when I had them before, just ask anyone that wanted them. First come first serve.

yeah... I was sad for days. I was torn between building the motor that was in it or building an LS2/3 for the same power but way better mileage and easier tunes. I just didnt want the headache of not having all my gauges work correctly. I am really picky with the cars I own and want everything perfect. SO NOW, I am either going to get a C5 Z06 or build a 79-81 Z28 with an LS2 and 6spd.
That was really fast!!!!!!!!!!!!!
just like my Z28
I received the emblems today...only two days shipping!
They look excellent... obviously laser precision
I will send you pictures in the summer when I install them
I am really really lucky to be able to purchase this last set
so thanks a zillion Jason ...you are awesome
and for the key too
cool
