1988 Camaro Rocker Emblems

I have an 88 Camaro Sport Coupe and I need the silver and black Camaro rocker emblem. Now I know they only made this emblem for one model year but someone has to make them right? I see reproductions of IROC, RS, and a bunch of others. Of course these would sell more due to the higher number of cars produced with that badging. But if anyone has a site or place they know of that would make or sell this emblem any help would be appreciated. A body shop ruined the one emblem I had so it's either I use something like silicone rubber to put it back on or I just buy some IROC emblems and replace them although that would not be true to the car at all.

Have you tried classic industries,but they're kinda exspensive,or you could just get the sticker type to put over the emblem.

Ahh I've looked at ClassicIndustries, they have everything BUT the one I need. It seems the 88 model year was overlooked when it came to making reproductions. The emblem I am looking for is the Camaro one in the picture I attached.

No offense but there are very few parts that are being sold for thirdgens that are reproductions. Most are old GM stock. Classic Industries, Next Gen / Year One, and others buy their parts from GM. Always try a dealer or www.gmpartsdirect.com first. If they do have it the price will be cheaper.

Yeah, I've tried all that. I guess at worst I could just stick on some gray RS emblems instead. Thanks everyone.

IROCZTWENTYGR8: Do you know what page you see the emblem on in their catalog?

Doh

Its not the new 1, I didn't know there was a new version out. Call up anyway and ask, maybe they'll have it. I know they had them for years. If not, next is the used Third Gen dudes advertised on the top of the page.

Yeah crazy indeed. I mean yes the emblem is rare and as far as I know only made for the 1988 Sport Coupes. It's either I buy it from that guy who is gouging me more than triple the price, or buy something like 2 RS emblems.
