You'll probably have to have someone make the up. Z51 was a suspension package. Usually GM ( Chevy, Corvette) only put emblems on a car that designated engines (LT-1, L-88, 427, etc).
I just saw the response to your post in C5 and stand corrected.

I have the Z51 badge. Got it at a sctatch and dent at one of the Ecklers Reunion's one year. it has 5.7[bowtie]Z51 and is the raised metal/plastic/whatever emblem (not a flat sticker)
I think you are looking for these:
http://www.corvetteamerica.com/cf/le...ategoryid=0936
and yes 'Vert guys, they have a full line of Z52 badges too
Search around using Google though, as these guys didn't have ALL of them (they didnt have the one I have)
It's all aftermarket stuff, but looks like a stock badge. Very nice looking IMO. I like mine.
here is a pic of the blue one, but they have all different colors:

Oh, let me add. when searching google for these search for "l98 z51 emblem" or "l98 z51 badge" or something like that... then you won't find al the C5 emblems. If you find some with L98 on a company's site, they are likely to have the rest of the C4 related emblems for you guys too.

I bought two Z51 emblems (cut from 1/8" stainless) off eBay a few months ago. I think they were advertised as C6 emblems, but they look just fine on my '84! I placed them on the front fender, just above the bodyside molding.
I'll try to take a pic and post it here soon.

I thought that was a C5 thing... I see more crappy looking vinal decal LS1 badges (no crap, a C5 has an LS1??) than anything else ever on a Corvette. 2nd might be the Mullet (i mean Mallet, har-de-har-har) badges.

Years ago I designed a Z51 emblem and had some stickers made,when the time comes I might have something made out of aluminum.The emblems that Ecklers carries look pretty weak.Check out my avitar to see mine.Id post a bigger picture if I knew how.
