Default Emblems?

I have a 93 lt1 6m and i am going to be giving her a new coat of paint. i was just wondering if I should replace the emblems with 40th annv. or just stock. its not a purple annv. edition its black but the seats have the 40 embroidered in them and the 40th emblems are cool lookin. however if they are just meant to be for the rubys only then ill just do regular emblems. thanks ahead of time.

I have them on my car for three reasons.


1. I like them.
2. It's my car and I can do whatever the F#$& I want to it.
3. I'm tired of people asking what year. (now only the really stoopid people ask.) Makes it easier to sort them out at car shows


Clean surface well and just stick on. Do not drill through the hood. I've had mine about 7 or 8 years now (maybe longer) with no issues at all.

If you car didnt come with the emblem, then dont put them on. Keep it stock.

Nice stock C6 wheels.


Carsnguitars,

Its your car, do what you think is best. When I get mine repainted someday, im going with the chrome hood and fuel door emblems.

Edit: Thats a fine looking 93 btw, black is best!

Hey lets all calm down here. I told him my opinion which he asked for.

I also knew some one had to mention the rims, but either way I still think they look better then the 85 rims.

Or I could put ZR-1 rims on , saw blades etc , , thats the same thing.

Superior Chevy (forum sponsor) is the cheapest place to buy them.
