Thanks a bunch for the offer! I was planing on just leaving them open, but if I change my mind I'll let you know. The splash pans that where shown to us for the brace where just shorter than normal to not interfere with the brace. They simply left the rear quarter open.
It would be cool if they made some sort of rain cover or foam stopper or something for when you get caught out.
The electrical connectors have seals, but they are harder to clean than a box.

Np

Here is a pic of what I was talking about. The further in back I believe are the normal ones and the one in front is that smaller one I was talking about.

Hmm...definitely food for thought. But they won't let light out.

Hey Kevin.
I ordered them from emblempros.com ..They are Flat Black with a very slight gloss to them. They do match great though cause I use Super VRT by Adams to do my vinyl on the hood and for the new hash marks.
Here is the Link...


http://emblempros.com/inc/sdetail/3448/3718

Now I also ordered a Stock CAMARO fender badge so I can paint it VR to match my car and this will be put in the center of the dash, right above the my link system ( picture below from how I had it on my 2012 Camaro)....The stock one comes evenly separated on clear one sided film/tape ( picture below)..

When I received the new lettering they were shipped stacked so they weren't evenly spaced like the stock ones, but my wife is so smart she came up with the idea to use scotch tape and stick them to the stock Camaro emblem that we bought so we could get them perfectly separated and perfectly lined up like the stock ones, she put the tape on the front of each letter then stuck them to the stock emblem exactly on top of them, then used the clear film in the picture as her guide to make it all neat neat and lined up, it literally took minutes to put on. she easily turned an hour job to 5 minutes!!
I also included a another picture below of the finished results.
Well hopefully that makes sense and let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Mike thanks man, that means more then you know coming from you!!
Reason being is your SS is one of my favorites on all of Camaro5!

Haha well just let me know they aren't going anywhere.


Thanks Eric, maybe I'll just tape around them and plastidip them and see how that holds up might be easier than trying to take them off and put new ones on.
