Alright Im getting sick of the back of my car...not only does it look very cluttered with all those emblems (SS, bowtie, cobalt, turbocharged) but it also makes it a pain while waxing! Ive come up with a couple of ideas for reducing the # of emblems and wanted to get some input....what do you guys/gals think? I know a lot of people completely strip it, but I dont want it completely stripped. Your input is appreciated.

Thanks

Idea #1



Idea #2



Idea #3

 

dont worry about that turbo emblem, if you want to keep it put it somewhere on the interior, but it looks much better without it on the trunk

 

None of the above

Paint a bowtie black and put it above the key hole or just leave is debadged

 

3, clean.

Don't let em know its turbo'd, well it's not like they can read it anyways.

His car isnt black, just informing you.

 

Well then dark blue or whatever it is lol. I couldn't really tell

 

I was afraid to completely shave it. And left my SS and "Stage II" emblems on there for a while. Then I gathered the ***** to shave it all off and it just turns into pure sex. Just trust me and do it. You will not be disappointed. Will look better than any of those 3 ideas. That's the reason why I didn't vote.

 

none of the above

 

I have number three so i voted for that

 

Thanks for the input so far guys. Yah I was leaning to the 3rd one. Ive got some more thinking to do, and hopefully Ill get some more input, but I appreciate your help. haha Yah the car isnt black its Imperial Blue, it was just really clean in that picture, so all the reflections make it hard to see the color....I had just finished claying and waxing it

 

^ If you HAVE to keep an emblem on it. Go with #3. But if you notice, it looks like the emblem doesn't match due to it being white and standing out in the middle of the trunk. Go with a dark blue emblem overlay so that it all blends in way better.

 

One more question guys....how about the front?

SS?



or Naked?


Again I appreciate the input

 

Opt 4. totally de-badged.....

 

SS in the front! Not on the back!

 

Front =color matched bow-tie!

 

Thanks for the input. What do you mean by overlay? Just paint the emblem to match?

 

I've considered buying the red tape "SS" ones on ebay to put on my white SS if I ever get it!

 

Idea #4: de-badged trunk

 

I just have color matched chevy emblems on the front and back

 

Overlays are basically like a vinyl cover in the "SS" shape that you put over the letters and they match the color of the car. That way you can only see the outline of the SS and it looks color matched and what not. Looks a lot better. I.E. Trailblazer SS Emblem. Ever seen those?

 

Alright that makes sense....that way you keep the chrome outline? Thats why I was steering away from painting to match initially, I thought it would be too hard to see. Where do you get these overlays? Custom order? or is there a supplier?

 

I know you can find them on Ebay for real cheap.. Like under 10 bucks. The link I used to use to go to them doesnt work anymore though. I heard the Ebay ones last pretty long too and they're pretty durable. So worth it.

 

ill check it out....thanks man.

 

No prob. Lemme know what you decide to do and how it turns out

 

idea 3

 

or how about something like this.............
