They're not original or GM, just something a previous owner added. The cross flags on the back bumper, aren't GM either. Welcome to the Forum, and the 81 owner's club too!

Welcome to the Forum!

Did you buy this car?

You may be able to use heat and fishing line to remove them.

Badges were owner applied....ugh! So were the exhaust tips. There were no 'editions' in 81. At least it's not a california LG-4!

completely add on no add on decals on body - auto zone freak more than likely , try a heat gun to remove - good luck with the car. have had my 81 for 11 years. Pat

Do you have any more pics of your '81, so we can see the whole thing? 80-82 is an amazing styling sensation!
