GFX emblems

o.k. a little over a year ago i got fresh paint . after a little searching i found emblems that just say CAMARO . it was my understanding at that time that 1988 was the only year for those GFX emblems . recently i was told that some other years also had the ones that say CAMARO . ??? i'm now a little confused , were there other years that had those ??? not a big deal , i'm just curious . thanks .

Re: GFX emblems

that makes sense... 88 was the first year the sport coupe got the ground effects package, and in 89 it became the RS... so only 1988's got the 'CAMARO' emblems

Re: GFX emblems

if you don't mind my asking, where did you find those emblems? I have an 88 coupe myself and have been looking to get my hands on a new set, since mine could use some help.
