RS or SS badging

what do you guys think of getting a custom made RS rear badge that lights up at night with like an LED or something like that inside? i just thought of it cause i saw one of the members video of the Camaro at the texas fair at night and realized you could not see the badging.

I have plans to make my bowties light up. I think it would look good lit up between those halos.

I've thought about this also. A clear acrylic SS badge centered on the front grill backed by white LED's between the halos would be hot.

That would be cool. The Guigaro Mustang had the Mustang emblem light up with LED's. it was sweet.

I would like to see lighted badges, although I probably wouldn't put any on my Camaro.

how do you take off/ switch the badges without any visiable residue or impressions from the previous badge?

heat up the glue w/ a hair dryer and use dental floss to peel off the letters. there will be a little sticky stuff left over on the paint. rub it off or use a cleaner of sorts to remove it. be careful not to damage the paint. make sure you wax over the area so it's still protected.....unless you are putting other letters on....in which case you'd clean up the area and put on new letters and then wax around them...

that sounds easy enough. but what about the grill? isn't there a huge indentation from the bowtie left there?
