They are "stick-on" vinyl decals!!! Granted, they are very good quality vinyl decals, but still, for the money, I was expecting some "metal" emblems as the auction led me to believe. So, even though I was disappointed, I just spent $57 (w/shipping) on these darn things, so I went ahead and installed them under the "Camaro" on the front fenders. Sorry, no pictures to show yet!!! They don't look bad, but they definitely don't look as good as I had hoped. To be honest, I wish I had gone with the metal '67 reproduction V-Flags like several others have done. I still may do that sometime in the future, after I get over the "kick in the junk" of wasting $57!!!!! Just my opinion, thought ya'll might be interested since you're discussing these emblems.
Later.....

Sounds like the trim badges on my '03 Envoy. They feel sorta rubbery?
