GM fender badges...

Are these things going to die before Camaro debuts?

Nothing like screwing up the styling of every product you make with a misguided consumer perception badge.

(If they want to use em, put em on the seatbelt buckles, like GM USED to do...)

Screwing up the styling? They are freaking tiny man.



And, as KyleW93Z mentioned, you can always take them off...

I don't think they are going to die that soon. I don't think they look bad either. Most Vettes I see still have them on.

Didn't somebody on here say the GM badge on their car was turned sideways? Anytime I look at that badge on my Cobalt that is what I think of.

I thought so, too. I remember it being a 2006-only thing.

Like other people bitching

Back on topic, I thought I remembered GM saying they would not continue to put the GM fender badges on their vehicles, basically saying it was a mistake and an added cost. I also remember it being after GM announced a multi-billion dollar quarterly loss.
