Default Front / Rear emblems?

Anywhere to find these that doesn't cost $100+? I took off my rear emblem a while ago because it was falling apart. Now my front is falling apart so I was thinking of putting them back on.

Check eBay. I got both for around $50.

About the only way I have seen is to buy some used ones. You might try one of the used parts vendors here on the forum too. You would just need to add some double sides 3M tape to them if they have a set.

Might as well have Austin make you some custom emblems. They won't ever fall apart.

Hah! I was going to mention the billet emblems from Susan, but I see someone has already linked my old thread.

It's ridiculous that GM charges $100 for ONE of those pieces of plastic garbage.

You can get 2 of these billet emblems for $90.

They're actually quite subtle. Maybe it just looks blingy because of the macro distance shot? The billet blends into my galaxy silver paint better than the black.
