Check this guy out. He used to be an e-Bay seller before he started out his own site. I have a set of his RS emblems from his e-Bay store when it was still up, nice quality.

The only ones I've got. They fit nicely in the depression for the originals, the green is the grass by my driveway reflecting off them. After a little cleanup on the rear, it looks better than shown.

Yes, the GFX on my car have a texture for my own reasons. The emblems on the side would be more flush, but when the textured coating was applied, the shop owner's son sprayed over the emblems I had (aftermarket also). The owner and I were both quite upset, they bought me these after I did some looking for replacements.

The birds arent perfect, but it has to do with the template I sent him, not the work.

On my 85 IROC, the rocker and nose emblems have plastic 'pegs' that fit into the body. TPI, any chance that you can fabricate a direct-fit billet fuel door?

My emblems replace that pegd style holder your Z28 emblem in places in.Looks at your emblem close. See the little seam/line around the black edge. Your emblem pops out of the holder.

Direct fit fuel door would be possible but would cost be cost prohibitive for most people. a prototypes, r&d ,tes fits , changes, etc...
