Which size SS badge for front Grill?
Welp I debaged most of my 'balt this weekend, rear decklid is done as well as the GM badges on the fenders and I completely agree with you guys and gals here it looks GREAT! I'd like to put the SS badge where my bowtie is now and obviously the holes are going to be an issue. I've seen pics where people have almost completely covered them with the SS badge my question is what size is that badge? Is it the door size or the rear decklid size? Just need to know so I can order one today!

Ahhh hrmm I guess I should have looked somewhere I got the crazy idea that like other SS's the door/trunk were different sizes
Ok so I guess that leads to my next question, which TBSS SS badge? They are two different sizes for doors/rear hatch

but regardless they are going to be too small still I believe the badges werent enlarged greatly if so, so the trailblazer badge would still be the right thing to get
Edit: ... OP go measure your badges the TB SS badge is 5-1/4" (if I'm not mistaken), my badges are 3-3/4". If you have a 5-1/4" badge then there you go
i used one of my door badges when i replaced my chevy sign up front, and then laied black vinyl over the silverish white in-lay so the badge was chrome with black letters
i dont know, i know that when i used mine, it just fit in the spot where the chevy sign was so mine worked perfect for me.
dont mind the lic plate. i use to own a z24 cavalier, so just so you dont think the cars a 2.4 ss its and lsj the plates are now Lil Vett. but this is what i did for the front badge and it was from one of the doors

why do you need to order one. did you damage yours taking them off???

I didnt take my doors off I only took the rear decklid off and its too small to work well and cover the holes
I guess I'm just asking which badge people used that covered the most of the holes
I guess I'm just asking which badge people used that covered the most of the holes Guess the next step would be to measure the hole distance see how much is needed to cover go to the stealership and order accordingly.
Any thoughts.

I'm still their looking for the exact same answer which SS badge do you guys use off the TB. I priced one for $20 here in town but I believe that was the door badge.

I used the cobalt door/trunk SS badge. IMO the TBSS badge is too big. Ours is the perfect size.
However, I think I am going to remove it and go back to my red bowtie. It's just cleaner looking.

I just got a free calender from the stealership last time I was in and in the calender was a old El Camino SS 1970 with the 454 and also a 1966 Chevelle SS with a 396 their SS badges on the front are bigger than that on the side. It's an old look that definatly is killer on the balts.
Nice pics guys
