Old school fender emblems

I want to put old school emblems on my car. I love the 1st gen "Camaro" script and old school SS on the fender. I want to do it like this.



Which emblems are being used to do this? Classic Industries and NPD sell a Camaro script emblem with tape backing but it looks like it's just a flat piece of metal and doesn't have the rounded lines of the original.



I haven't seen any of the smaller SS fender emblems that don't have the studs on them for the 1st gen cars. I want someting with a tape back for adhesion.

What a lot of us have done is buy the fender emblems that have th posts and remove them, then using 3M doublesided molding tape, put them on where you like. There have been a lot of us that have done this pu put fender badges, header badges, and even badges on the dash. It works like a champ.

It is nothing to grind those off. It took all of 2 minutes for both sides.

true it wouldn't take much to cut them off but i am also looking for a flat emblem not the old ones that are raised quite a bit... i have a waterjet and can cut them out myself but the design is a little hard to copy... and the available font are not even close...

well I know, because that is what I did MONTHS ago......but I bet a lot of people would like it if they didn't have to mod their badges, thats all.

We just got them GM approved to make. Waiting for addition to our contract, then we can sell them.
Stainless mirror
Stainless brushed
Composite colors

Thanks, Roger

Are you able to post pictures?

I have a set that I cut the posts off, painted, and put 3M tape on, but I was never happy with the job I did of trimming the tape, so they are still sitting in the garage.

I do have pictures, and will post them tomorrow. We laser cut the tape so it matches the piece exactly. No gaps or voids.
All we need to do is get the contract changed, because we recently had about 6 more items approved. So until I get that all back here we have to wait to sell, but they said OK.
I will post pictures tomorrow.

Thanks, Roger
