Odd 82 Z28 Emblem problem

All the replacement emblems I've found online have a bowtie apart of the rear emblem. My rear emblem also appears to be adhesive as opposed to the panel ones on the sides but that may be normal, is there a chance a previous owner razer-knifed the bowtie off?

(Tri-Color Red seemingly) anyone know where to find touchup paint for my original red?

No. The 1982 Z28 did not have the bowtie. 1983 on up did. It should also be a gel coat adhesive emblem. It does not have a plastic frame around it

Well thank you, that does make more sense. Unfortunately I can't find any originals or remanufacturing for the 82 in mine or other colors
