Badges/Emblems

I have an 88 L98 Iroc Z that no longer has the 5.7 Tuned Port Injection emblem or the rear Iroc Z emblem. I can find the 5.7 for about $25 at a couple sites. The rear Iroc Z emblem I can't find anywhere though. Any Ideas? What color 5.7 badge should I get? I'm leaning towards the silver one. Would this have been original on my car? It is white with silver Iroc Z decals and yellow/silver stripe kit. Not sure if they made the emblems to go with certain decal and stripe kits. Thanks for any input on this.

For the rear Iroc badge, have looked it up in Ebay? Theres one guy name Tauk who sells alot of brand new badges for third gens, i recommend a search on ebay, youd be suprise. And Silver does sound right to me. The only other colors i belive they came in was RED. And the 25 bucks for the TPI badge is a good deal

Too plain and ugly IMO.

I've searched Ebaymotors...would Ebay itself have more items? I haven't seen any rear Iroc badges. I found a couple of the side ones, but they're a different size, right? Thanks for the tip though.

Thanks, I'm pretty sure I'll be getting silver unless they send me the wrong one lol. Red wouldn't go with anything else on the car and the gold looks like close enough to silver to me in pics I seen. So they can send me either silver or gold. Not too sure if I'll be polishing tailights anytime soon. Would look nice tho lol.

Redid my car last year, about the only place I could find some of this was at YearOne. Not cheap either, but their selection is about the best I found. Silver is very hard to find, common on most IROCs and they are all used up by now I believe.
