Removing Emblems?
I had a question about some of you guys who have removed your emblems. What do you guys do about the 2 small holes left afterwards? I was thinking of taking all the emblems and bsm's off my vette but I know if you do that you will be left with 2 small holes in the front and 2 in the rear where the vette emblems are. Any ideas?

If your not going to replace the said emblems with anything else, you will need some body work and paint work done!

Years ago (before the C6 came out) I wanted a little cleaner look. So I removed the front and deck lid emblems. I tried the chrome emblem on the front but didn't care for the look. So returned the chrome emblems. I took a single edge razor blade and trimmed off the circle around the flags. It looked great so I put it on the front covering the two holes. I left the deck lid clean without any emblems. (there where no holes under that emblem.) I think GM must have liked my idea as a few years later the C6 came out with just the flags and no silly circle.

The front emblems have posts, so the front of the car has holes. The rear hatch emblem does not have posts, so no holes. My Vette is a 98, and the rear hatch emblem has no posts so no holes. They where easy to take off and with a single edge razer blade they cut like butter.
