I need your opinions

Hi i'm looking for a brand new set of rocker panel/bumper emblems on ebay, does anyone know of a cheaper source?

If not i'm buying one of theese, which pack would look best on a black Camaro? Thanks

Re: I need your opinions

I honestly think the last silver set will look best. I'm not sure about cheaper sources though.

Does anybody else have the problem when clicking a link on here it pops up twice on firefox?

Yeah i was thinking the same thing, silver and black go great. And yes even in internet explorer it opens up twice? Just click open in new tab.

Re: I need your opinions

Check out these polished stainless emblems for about the same price. I have a set of the RS emblems from the same site.

Thank you man! The Z28 stainless steal emblems are perfect. My only question is, does it fit perfectly in the dip of the rocker panel? My brothers 82 Camaro does not have this "dip" in the ground effects like my 89 but his z28 emblems fit perfect with my Camaro. Is it the same diameter in lenth and height as the stock Z28 emblems? I want a perfect fit in the panel. thanks

Re: I need your opinions

The RS emblems fit perfect in my GFX and bumper. I would imagine the Z28 emblems would be the same.

Re: I need your opinions

I like the stock silver ones. They look the best IMO.
Here they are on a red Camaro.I think they would look great on black.
The stainless ones look nice but would like to see them actually installed on a car to make a final decision.
