My '97 Z28 had a dealer badge. I parked the car outside in the sun, and using the heat from the sun, as well as a hair dryer, I was able to remove the badge very easily.

Just direct the heat on the badge, while working the floss behind the badge. It'll come right off. Remove any adhesive followed by a little wax.

The bowtie in person on both front and back actually looks real good and the chicklet is not even noticeable! The word Camaro kind of blends too, once you see it in person you will not hate it as much as you do! Besides this Car needs to show off where what and the heritage it has !!!

Yeah but I don't like showing off, I like my cars to be subtle...well as subtle as driving a 2010 camaro can be.

I actually really like the bowties, they are definitely staying (unless I get an aftermarket front grill, then the front one might not stick around).

And sure, the chicklets are small and don't stand out much, but removing them still gives a slightly cleaner look IMO. I like subtle changes like this that make the Camaro my own

Beats me but on one of the assembly line pics of the body shells, you can see a bowtie shaped indent with a hole for the bolt. So I guess you better practice your bondo skills if you wanna get rid of it.

The GM badges on my Malibu are always polished and shiny. I'm very proud to have the Mark of Excellence on it.

I like subtlety and would remove excess badges, but I think what is on the SS now is just fine for my tastes.

Actually, I'll take anything you guys don't want. I have a reputation for being the first person to go to if you're throwing out a computer, TV, whatever. Just let me know what you don't want and I'll see if I need it or not.
hey now I asked first!!!!

If I can I'm tossing both bowties and any GM logos inside. However, I think the camaro badge on the side is nice, so I haven't decided on that one.
