Thoughts on retro badges

Hey guys what do you think of people putting the retro fender badges on their cars? I've been debating on whether or not I like the look. I've been thinking about putting the 69 camaro script on my fender with the v flags underneath. Are there any pictures of cars like that? Would that look too "cluttered?" What do you think?

I think the retro "Camaro" badge looks great. I'd leave off the flags though.

I have the Retro Script on mine, in the black stainless, and so far I have not seen another where I live, so I feel kind of special but not in the short bus kind of way.

I went back and forth for a while myself. Ultimately, I only did the retro SS grill emblem on my previous 2011 SS. I couldn't see myself with the script badge or the flags.

I grew up in the '60 so to me they just don't belong- Look out of place on a 5th gen Camaro.
You know those V-flags were on any Chev Biscayne 4 door station wagon if it had a
327 v/8 engine- lol.
