You guys might want to check out the May 2003 Issue or GM High Tech Performance, on the front cover, and pages 35-36. BAD *** 4th gen with the Corvette flags on the fenders. It looks great IMO....

Well, after that photoshop job I have to say I like it.

My theory with badges and wings and things, is if your going to make it show, you better make it go.

Though I have seen high horsepower 350's in early 82-85 camaro's be brought down with those little 14" rims they use on the low rider trucks and have **** carpetting put on the dash pad, lowered all too h*ll, and with an aztecan naked woman painted on the hood (now she wasnt that bad ) But none of it belonged on a Camaro.

Just do it tastefully

PS I posted this prior to seeing Nolan's untasteful Type R pic.

IMO....

2 badges is one too many....

Why not shave off the Z28 badges and put on the "flag" emblems.....

Here is a photoshop of the shaved Z28 emblems....

I am aware that 91's are two bolt blocks. My block is a '96 vortec block which has factory 4 bolt main caps (not-splayed) but 4 vertical bolts none the less.

Keep in mind that the emblems are ALOT smaller than what was photoshopped above. It will look very different. The above photoshop was just to give an idea of placement.
