personal preference. whether the car has any badges on it or not its still a chevy and your still representing chevy/GM driving a camaro. everyone knows camaros. i took mine off cause car bodies look so much cleaner all flat with no badges.

speaking of Badges - anyone remove their '45th' side badges? I need one, someone felt they needed mine so they took it. At least they were considerate and used the string method and left no scratches.... If you have a set and want to get rid of them, let me know... Thanks!

I removed the rear bowtie and got the "CAMARO" lettering from emblem pros and put back there. It is the same font as the fender lettering, just bigger. I did the same thing on my last Camaro. It just looks right to me. Older gen Camaros said it across the back between the tail lights like that, and Corvettes have always said Corvette on the back. The bowties just seem too generic to go on the vice-halo car. I want to remove the front one too, but the refresh models aren't a simple bowtie delete to accomplish this, you have to replace the grill.

I would say leave it, but paint it to accent your car.

I didn't care for the Bowtie so I replaced it with the SS emblem. I did the same thing in the front. And as you can see, I also found Waldo.
