Side Emblems for C5s
Hi,
Does anyone that has installed some side emblems on their C5 have any pictures they could share?
I'm considering something for the side of my coupe and would like to see some examples.
Thanks,

I've thought about it but haven't done anything yet. I thought the LS1 emblems in the place the Z06 fender emblems are would look OK but the good ones are pricy. And I don't want to be accused of being ricey...

Have seen the LS1 emblems that look like the Z06 ones and have recently seen a small "Stingray" emblem in some of the Vette related mags. The Stingray emblem is really for the earlier models, but I guess it could be installed on a C5. Not sure how it would really look though. Other than that, there are some billet emblems with C5 logo that are sold by West Coast Corvettes.

Just PLEASE don't get the Z06 badges. I've seen them on 2 different automatic verts.

All those replies and not one picture, except the Mallet, which would be like sticking a Z06 emblem on my coupe.
C'mon guys, show a little confidence, no way I would add a Z06 emblem to a non Z car.
The hpperformance ones look good. I wish I could find some 50th aniversary emblems without the 50th in them. They look nice.
My search continues.

I have a friend with an '04 SL 500. He ordered and installed all the chrome accents, and the quad-tipped exhaust, wheels...and even the AMG badges while taking off the "SL-500" one. Voialla!- Instant SL-55. We have so much fun busting his ***** over it.....he better not ever meet REAL SL-55 at a light anywhere. But hey...it's still a damn nice car he's got. Just shows that posing knows no financial limits.
