Good to very good used condition. Obviously not brand new but they don't show any significant pitting and the black shadowing is still strong.

They look pretty fine to me. I would use them on my car.

Hi g,
They look nice in the pictures you posted.
It would help to see them from the side to determine the condition of the black paint on them.
Regards,
Alan

This is a reproduction script with an arrow pointing at the laser cut adhesive but it shows the black area of the script too. This part of the black has often been rubbed off on original scripts.

They look very good to me! As mentioned.... no pitting, and the black paint is still in good shape. If you don`t like them.... send them to me. I`ll trade you for the ones on my car.

The ones posted here by Allen, are painted correctly. The service replacement ones, that Chevrolet has been selling for years now, aren't painted like that. Instead of just having the raised area next to the body painted black, the ones from Chevrolet now have the whole side painted black, with only the actual face of the emblem left chrome.

From what I can see, the ones you've posted are painted correctly, and in pretty nice condition.

Thanks guys. I'll take a look at the sides and where the black paint should be per Alan's suggestion (and post pics as well.)
