Hood emblem

Thinking of doing a hood emblem...not sure if one or both sides, and not sure if I should do cubic inches or liters? The car is black, so I'm thinking the black on black would be subtle, or chrome would pop more. Opinions?

I vote inches over liters. Black over chrome.

Cubic inches below the Camaro emblem on the fender and LS3 on the hood.

Look at my profie album pics and you'll see the stainless steel LS3 emblem on my hood. It's actually on pic in my sig but the sun is too bright for it to show up. Onyx is sweet, but I don't think it'd look good on my car. I opted for the mirror polished ones.

If you have a black on black theme going on I'd do the black 376 emblem. If you have other chrome emblems or wheels I think I'd do the chrome or silver 376. Oh, and just my opinion I think the old-skool Camaro logo looks good on the fenders in place of the exsisting ones. What I'd like to do in black.

Well, the car is black, and I'm putting on the black bowties, but I will probably keep the chrome "camaro" on the fenders and the wheels are the standard silver RS. So, I'm thinking the onyx would look pretty cool, that way it's a mix of both colors.
