25th anniversary badge on hood?

I was looking through my factory manual and saw this......

This can't be an actual thing right? I have only heard of this badge being on the trunk. It would look ridiculous!

Never Saw That On A Production Car,Maybe It Was On The Drawing Board But Never Approved,It Would Look Weird.

But I tell you what...that was in the program until pretty late...pretty close to launch. That service manual art was developed from PAD (Product Assembly Drawing) art, which means GM had already put it on a PAD for the plant to use when the time came.

I don't think it would look bad at all. Dare to be different. Obviously it was a design that made it through R & D
