Wink New style 1LE Emblem - Emblempros prototype

This is a prototype piece that has been sent to GM for final approval. 1LE is in our contract, and we are working on this design at the moment. Final design may be subject to slight changes, but you can get the basic idea. Also, our insert coloring is made of solid plastics that are UV rated. We do not use enamel paint that will fail over the course of time. Our patterned inserts, shown here in red, are recessed below the face of the stainless steel.

Just a couple of quick notes on our build.

1 - We use stainless steel. Simply put, it's the best material you can place on your vehicle. Chrome will peel and pit. Aluminum needs to be polished regularly. Stainless steel never needs to worry about maintenance, rust, pitting, yadda yadda yadda. Again, it's the best.

2 - We don't use enamel paint. Painted emblems all, inevitably, fail to the elements. That won't happen here; there is no paint.

The final versions will be available in onyx/mirror stainless as well as color choice for your inserts. We will utilize our ability to make patterns onto the inserts as seen in this emblem.

Our new Z28 emblem for good measure:









Again, none of these are for sale yet as they are being put through the proper channels. But, we assure they will be available soon.

I like the emblem itself but I don't care for the slash between the 1 and LE.

Looks great Roger! You guys do incredible work!

I'm torn on the slash for the 1LE version as well as GearheadSS, but at least since it is an individual piece, folks could choose not to install it. Great flexibility in design there... Absolutely love the color of the red carbon inlay with the white.

Also, perhaps have the option of the same height on this style for the '1' 'L' and 'E'? This way the '1' doesn't overpower the whole emblem? Again, just as an option...

Just my thoughts. They look amazing!

That's good feedback. Maybe we'll offer a version with and without the slash.

The red portion in our photos will be also be available in different colors. We just chose red for this prototype.
With the carbon fiber style patterns, we have a few different styles of as well.

The Z/28 logo looks better than the 1/LE version which has too many rounded edges...just my .02 cents...

For those that don't like the slash on the 1/LE, I do t see why you just don't remove it? I doesn't look like each piece is connected in any form. And that z28 emblem is just badass.

That z28 one is amazing...could you do an RS one that same style with the black back and red CF but with the black stainless instead? I would be VERY interested in getting a pair of those.
