I'm curious to know if anyone knows of any web site where you can buy 4th generation Z-28 badges made from brushed aluminum. I have a dark blue 02 Z-28. The stock badges are black, and can barely be seen. I bought some silver reflective overlays for the 3 badges and installed them. They look great against the dark blue of the car. The only problem is that they are not an exact fit, and are cut a little longer than the badges. The ends of them are curling up. They arent peeling....just curling up at both ends. The middle lines are the worst. I have done a search on this board for this item and there was a post a year ago where some one had asked one vendor if they made an aluminum, cres or chrome badge for the 4th gen cars and they replied that they were working on a design, but had not completed it yet. I have looked at the ones on RK sport, but they dont have any 4th gen badges. I'd like to stick with the 4th gen badge design......it fits the car better than any I have seen IMHO. My thoughts are that it would be nice to have some made from a brushed aluminum, with the thru lines painted black or the color of the car so they would show up well against a dark back ground. I've seen cres, chrome and aluminum Z-28 badges for sale for all of the F-bodies except for the 4th gen. Anyone have any ideas other than to go spend $300 to have some custom made? If not I'll just stick with the overlays and replace them as needed. Thanks in advance )

 

the site that comes to mind is rksport.com...don't know if they're brushed or not...

 

Yea...thanks Faceless, but I have already checked em out....they dont have any 4th gen badges....not that I saw anyhow

Again bro......I have looked at these. Thanks for the info, and I dont mean to sound ungrateful but I was hoping for an exact replica of the stock 02 Z-28 badge done in aluminum, cres or chrome in stead of plastic. The ones on the rksport site arent quite what I was hoping to find.....sorry.

 

those aren't plastic...they're stainless steel...

 

I don't have it listed on my site but do have brushed aluminum vinyl. It looks pretty much just like the brushed aluminum you would buy if it were really brushed aluminum Send me an email if you'd like more details!

 

Faceless...thanks for all your help. I realize the ones at rksport are made from cres. Thats not the point I was making.....the problem I have with them is that they are not a replica of my stock badges....thats all

 

I have the RKSport Z28 fender emblems in Stainless Steel Chrome and they are not exact replicas. They are a little shorter and the end of the 8 is cut off. Just wanted to add my 2 cents

 

I had Black emblems, now they are painted Chevy orange really sticks out on a black car
