It's the Batmobile!

Temporary attachment for now. Everyone always says it looks like the Batmobile...so maybe?

Loose the "Camaro" badges and Bowties, and leave only the bat wings. People won't know what to think, but it will look good. You could even do wings in place of the front and rear Bowties.

I'm not a huge fan of debadging, or even changing the factory badging, but I think this would look awesome. Maybe even get together with AAC and see if they can do the rear bat with red LED lighting like they do with bowties. I personally think that would look great.

I was thinking the same about removing stuff and putting these on. I think it's too much to just add on other emblems unless it's very slight and tasteful. Wasn't sure if these crossed the line or not.
We sell a bunch of different ones at my comic book store, but this is my favorite and fits the car the best to me. I put a Wonder Woman on the wife's car

I generally agree: slight and tasteful. Subtle.

Here's a quick photoshop, inspired by someone who overlayed SS emblems on the Bowties.
