WHO WANTS A BETTER SS LOGO?

I think GM cheaped out on the "SS" logo on the Camaro. It's a tiny little cheap looking piece of plastic that looks like it can be removed with two fingers. We should of gotten something like the 60's camaros. Makes the car look more mean and the rear logo is too small looking.



I'm not one who likes flashy logos but the v6 and v8 models look so much alike that a bigger better SS logo could of set them apart. a side SS logo would of been nice too.

It works for me. I like the look of the older styles, but I don't think it quite fits the newer cars. I don't have a better suggestion though, so I don't have a problem with it.

i think the ones we have are great. they fit really well with the current 'SS' theme that's been going for the last 6 years.

and nothing short of a heat gun will easily take those emblems off without seriously hurting your paint

I like understated nature of it. By the time the other guy figures it out he is left standing!

That's the reason behind their design. The SS and RS emblems are intentionally small.

I agree, they should have been a little bigger.

Keep it small and clean.

If you want something large and obnoxious I'm sure you can go to the local flea market and get something suitable. LOL !!!!
