Left, Right, or Center?
 
Ive wanted to do this for a while. Debating where I should mount this badge on my billet grill. I'm leaning towards placing it in the center, but thats where I usually mount my license plate, otherwise my next option would be passenger side for that old school z/28 look... discuss.

Left=Driverside
Right=Pass Side

LH (drivers side)


IMO only the LH side works. No Camaro ever had a RH one (I can't even think of any car that had one on the RH side). That particular style Z/28 emblem was always LH mounted, so it seems most 'natural' there. Center would just look like a bogus afterthought.

I should clarify that in the post :-)

LH driverside, the Z stands out better. So looks like I have to buy a Z28 logo now?

BonzoHansen 03-24-2009 05:53 PM

Poll descriptions updated. :)

driver's side looks best

NJSPEEDER 03-24-2009 06:55 PM

I say drivers side, that is where I want to put it on my car. Someone in PA has it, saw it at Josh's shop once.

Not a bad idea. The problem with that is, it would blend way too much with the white "28". I have some paint left over from when I got a paint job, plus I have an extra badge. Maybe i'll use it for trial and error, or just photoshop it :lol:

sweetbmxrider 03-24-2009 08:23 PM

yeah play around with it. that or even the 28. i dono i thought it would be a cool detail.

Anti_Rice_Guy 03-24-2009 08:30 PM

Driver's side.

enRo 03-24-2009 08:55 PM

Pewter tends to blend too much with the grill and the white 28. Doesnt make that Z/ stand out.. Although, blue looks pretty damn good.

LH said, as if there was a choice.
Leave the colors.
