I do not get the re badging or the "mod" of body parts.
But I could care less what others do.
Come to think of it, if it was not for the forum I may never have thought about it.

Must be the fancy badges, the new V6 Camaro zero-60 in 5 seconds is as fast or faster than the pre-2000 Camaro V8s; and the v6 has a big advantage in top speed.

This would be the one thing that I do truly hate to see. It just proves that the owner has no problem being a liar.

Because many of these cars end up getting misrepresented and passed off as the real deal to
folks. I know I wouldn't trust a person that badges there car something it isn't. Now someone that does say a ZL1 upgrade but doesn't badge the car as such. I have no problem with that.

We have a girl in my area driving a "Z-26". It's a 6 so I guess that's why. I got a laugh, but it's always nice to see a girl who loves her Camaro.

That not misrepresenting anything. That's just personalizing her car in a creative way.

Chevy did make a Z26 though

The other day I watched a video of a man being beaten to a pulp for carrying a "badge" at a presidential rally that the beater didn't agree with. One was even confused as to which flag to fly within the United States. Could be worse, I guess. What's next, a beat down for Camaro posers? Seems where we're headed nowadays.

Fishing line would be the safest way, if it's stubborn you could use a guitar E string but be really careful.

If you have 2 they would look cool under the "Camaro" badge on both sides as well....

Had a friend in high school that put a 5.0 emblem on a Ford Escort. It was very sharp (for a red escort) and everyone got a kick out of it.

I'm thinking about putting a DD on my quarter panels, so the ricers know its a Daily Driver. Would that upset the Camaro Gods?
