its the small things that count

now that its outta the paint shop its time to start putting all the emblems back on. but this time im putting too much thought into it and it hurts. so i need some input...

1) rear PONTIAC letters.

2) door emblems.

3) nose emblem.

4) corner lenses/fog lights

those are the little things im contemplating now, so throw your thoughts out on the table.

here are pics for reference:

That would look really good. And I'm not 100% sure, but I think that camaro turn signals should fit in your car. If so they sell smoked clears like I have on my car, and they also sell black clears. The black one's look really good and would look awesome on your car. You can get them off ebay cheap, if they fit.

well i know the camaro corner lenses wont work. the bumpers are curved differently.

and as for the polished emblems, ive seen a guy on ebay, i think the name was mjblum he makes polished door emblems for cheap. i like that but then i'd need to change the rear center filler panel color to a chrome vinyl.

i had chrome emblems on my Z28 and i really didnt like it. it was too monochromatic. black car silver wheels and emblems. i needed some more red in there.


but still though i appreciate the advice. i'll have to chop it.

don't know if you still want some input. personally instead of the blacked out or polished lettering i would like to see (don't know if it exists) like a bright red lettering with like a black spray over it. so it's the right color but yet not sticking out and flows..i dunno the idea sounds cool to me
