help-how to install small SS badge onto heritage grill? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

dutchnrican · 09-28-2011, 12:11 PM

I had a heritage grill installed on my new camaro before i picked it up and they gave me my stock grill with the bowtie and ss emblem still attached to it. I would like to take the small red ss emblem and put it on my heritage grill in the same position (off to the right). how can I do this? is there a bracket i can order? maybe from GM; get at a local dealership? other online website? home remedies?

Thank You!

Just use 3M automotive tape. Thats how I installed mine. A year later and its still holding strong.

i'll keep that in mind, but does anybody know of a bracket that is made to put it on the heritage grill? i've seen old threads before with a link to a site that supposedly had them, but i can't find them anymore.

I already have the emblem, i'm looking for a solution to mount it. a $10-$30 bracket or something? it's the small emblem that sits off-centered on the lower right. I pulled it off my stock grill and want to put it on my heritage grill in the same spot. i'm not looking to put an SS emblem in the middle.

like this:

this is what it looks like after i took it off my stock grille:

also, does anyone know where i could get the same kind of small red emblem, but instead of it saying SS, it says SS/RS?

I wanna know the same thing for my RS badge.

Send a PM to 3CamarosOnHand. He's on the NY/NJ regional section in the UpstateC5 threads! He did exactly what you're looking for! I think he rigged up a home made bracket before installing the grill. When I get my Heritage grill I want to do the same thing!

Hey that's my car!

I trimmed the bracket with a dremel to make it fit. Right now it's being held in place with a piece of clay until I can get a more permanent fix implemented.

let me know what your permanent fix consists of when that happens?

right now the only thing i've come across is here http://www.cleancutcreations.com/catalogpage3.html about 4th product up from the bottom of the page. sticks on with tape though, might as well stick mine on with tape. was hoping for a simple bracket (no tape) that snaps onto the grill like it does the stock grill.

I had the body shop custom make a bracket.

walt353 · 01-21-2012, 09:59 AM

Has anyone got a good fix for this? Im going to do something soon, not sure what.

hvychvy970 · 01-21-2012, 10:05 AM

I trimmed that big part of the bracket off on the back and drilled 2 holes into the remaining piece and zip tied it to the grill. It is on there great. I did this whenever I changed out the grill though and the front was off of the car.

walt353 · 01-21-2012, 10:42 AM

That sounds good. Yes it will be easier with the front off. Mine is sitting on my kitchen table. Im for sure putting the emblem on before I reassemble. Thanks for getting back.
