Hmmmm... I only count 2 on the outside of the car. Did I miss some?

It's also on the owner's manual in the glove box and on all the stationary that came with the car in the owner's manual packet. If writing notes with a z06 pen, on z06 note paper doesn't remind you that you drive a z06, you may need more badges.

That's a good point to make for adding another badge. It's not the owner who is putting too many badges on his Z by adding 1, GM already did it for us! Guess THEY didn't want us to forget what kind of car we're driving.

For a second I thought I was on a tuner forum.
I guess in some cases more badges equals more horsepower right?

I had Austin make up an
LS6SC emblem for the back, ala ZR1, but thought it looked out of place so I inset it into the exhaust plate.
Pardon the dirt please.

How about some custom badge pics? Like Z06 Supercharged, Z06 other HP #, etc for the side?

If you can think it up, Austin can probably turn it into an emblem you like.
Link to his website, lots of pictures of his work.

I'm trying to find someone to make a Z06 emblem to fit the tip of my soldering gun. Then I'll
brand each and every tread block of my tires, and leave little Z06 footprints everywhere I go. GP anyone?
