Posted: Thu Nov 23, 2006 11:00 pm Post subject: New Emblems |
|
|
I found a new set of GFX emblems for my '92 to replace the 4th gen ones I have on there now. Every time I found OEM emblems on e-Bay, someone would bid higher than I was willing to go (for used stuff). Except for the nose emblem, and being made from stainless steel, these look very close to the originals that were on the car, and the price was comparable to or less than new OEM. What do you think?
These are the present badges on mirror plexi.
New set to go on.

| Nice emblems are nice. I think I liked the old ones you had better though. Really added to the sharpness of the car. |

I like the new ones. The front one looks kinda strange though. Is it flat or does it just look that way in the pic? _________________ '86 Trans Am - 5.0L TPI - LT1 cam - 700R4 - WS6

The front one is flat. I need to figure out how to bend it down the center to fit the contour of the nose. Bending is the easy part, centering it and making the crease straight is the hard part. |
