On LS1.com forums, I've been reading through a thread by Emblempros.com who make some amazing appearance parts for late model F-bodies. http://www.emblempros.com/ I commented on how it is hard to find thirdgen related parts and their man Roger is interested in starting up making pieces for this market. Here is the thread: http://www.ls1.com/forums/showthread.php?t=115981 So not speaking for the group,if there are any ideas for emblems or fabrications this appears to be a good place to start.

 

i looked over there stuff i think i nice iroc z fender emblem would be nice or how bout the z28/ iroc z dash logos we have be made for the fender...just my opinion

 

Agreed, I've seen a set of GTA emblems they made and it looked pretty amazing. They seem easy to work with and limited only by what can be thought of.

 

There are embelms out there. I've hade a handfull of custom billet emblems for members. Search for billet emblems. I'm sure the pics will come up. I'm on my cell or id dig em up for ya.

 

I'd buy a stencil or dry tranfer or decal that said "AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE" to replace the worn off one on my console.

 

Heres an example of the GTA set they made, other colors available.

 

here's stuff off the top of my head, they may or may not already exist.

-Guage overlays

-As mentioned above, something for the automatic transmission gear indicator. possibly one for manuals too

-Rocker,Bumper, dash badges.

-engine bay labels like the 4th gens, but for us. i know after ~20 years many become crappy.

for those with the stock Z28 hood. maybe taking out the two flaps/louvers and put little grilles in there. its an idea i had for a while.

- switchplates for our ashtray.

-hydrocoated parts

 

Possibly interior emblems to replace the stock plastic ones, some billet overlays for the center console such as the shifter bezel etc

 

oh and some light up door sills like they have for 93 and newer camaros

 

This is the response from Roger at Emplempros:

Much of these items can be done, in high quality.
What I need are volunteers to give me dimensions, and verify fitments.
As long as we can get to that point. We are golden, for making many of these right away.
We do not own every car we sell parts for, and a fitment project with the customer is a good way to get it done.
Also if there is anyone close to Lexington, and they can bring a car by, I can quickly get many of the dimensions myself.
I am ready, when you guys are.

-engine bay labels like the 4th gens, but for us. i know after ~20 years many become crappy. I only need pictures and dimensions

for those with the stock Z28 hood. maybe taking out the two flaps/louvers and put little grilles in there. its an idea i had for a while. We already make these.

- switchplates for our ashtray. Need pictures and dimensions.

or call us up. 858-455-9326

Thanks, Roger lets get it done

 

I went on their site looking for the hood grilles they already make, I did not see them on the site. BUT, what I did find that I liked a lot was the ashtray switchplates!! I have been trying to fabricate one up in my spare time for electronic cutout and line lock. I hacked up a spare ash tray and was going to do something similar, but no matter what I would have done, it would not have looked as nice as the ones they have on their site. To have one made for the third gen ash tray between the shifter and the radio (in the console), would be excellent!

 

Can someone with a mint one lend a hand?

 

He is doing a custome nose emblem for me as we speak. Very easy to get along with!

 

where on the site do you have them?

for pre 1993 camaros this is what i see come up

http://www.emblempros.com/____pre_1993_camaro

 

A lot of the stuff they make they don't put on the site (4th gen stuff also). Like the GTA emblem, etc. Just shoot him an email and he'll get back to you with cost and shipping.

 

Just send an email with the dimensions, I'm sure Google images or ebay has a pic of a new one.

 

Some of the stock 'Performance Sound' emblems. I'm having a hard time finding one.

 

i just wish someone would come out with reproduction taillights, they get harder to find everyday!

 

Well i did see a bunch of taillights in he back of this one camaro until i blew up the back window with my crow bar and hit most of them on accident. Lol The hatch in the back was locked and had no way in getting into the back. Also gt a bottle jack and crowbar.


End of that story.

 

Got my emblem in, I'll post a picture soon!



and, just FYI, the hood inserts they are talking about are for the 4th gen LT1 cars...

 

i would like to see some B4C police emblems... such as these stickers i have.. would like to seem them in a nicer emblem type that i can put near the front fenders near the doors..

here is another one i found made out of metal.. but this guy wants $80 per emblem

 

Those GTA emblems look FANTASTIC!

 

3rd brake light cover might be nice.

Battery covers look cool as well.

 

I just emailed him. It would be nice to update the front nose emblem. have to wait to see what he says.

 

any word on the nose emblems?

Updates on the nose emblem? I spoke to roger and he informed to send him dimensions . I just haven't had the time to time to do so.! Anyone have dimensions?

 

I wouldn't mind having a set of new gel emblems made for the door handles but with custom wording for those of us that would like it to say "LS1" "turbocharged" or "supercharged" etc. Would be a neat touch I think.

 

I want some IROC-Z LS1 emblems

 

I think it would be cool to include some of the V6 guys in on this one, I for one would buy an emblem to replace the "camaro" or "RS" ground effect emblem for 2.8L, 3.1L, 3.4L, or 3.8L with the option to have T, TT, or SC in front.

 

Anyone have dimensions on the front nose emblem?

 

This nose emblem would be nice (not clear if this particular one fits out 3rds, at the guys store it only mentions 4ths)

 

i have an extra 3rd gen nose emblem. ill send it to him t keep for production purposes.

 

Kool lmk if you hand over the info to them.

 

benton, if you dont get any bites for someone to bring thier car, ill send some nose dash and rocker emblems..im interseted in billet or chrome replacements myself.

 

Did these ever get made? I'm looking for one, but in the 91/91 yellow font.

 

If they make a set of illuminated sills for our cars, i would grab a set.

 

Hey guys.

If you want emblems I can get you whatever you want.

They would be approx. 4mm thick with or without studs made of the highest quality zinc available! Zinc to my knowledge doesn't rust either! Your choice of plating etc.

Can be polished plain, painted, polished nickel, chrome, or 24kt gold.

They can also be engraved with a textured background that would give them a "gold nugget" look when plated in 24kt gold.

They wouldn't be cheap though. A 24kt plated gold GTA emblem set would run 400-500 bucks with multiple studs to deter antitheft.

Nickel would be cheaper and painted would be even more cheaper.

These would be considered a high end option, more of a custom route deal.

If your interested in having some custom emblems made or something your interested in just hit me up at iconbadgta@yahoo.com and I will help you all I can!
