Z06 C5R 427 Badge

So what do I do when i wake up at 2AM.

I would like to have this made for my car.

I by no means have any graphic abitities, I was just playing around and this is what I did.

I am kinda leaning toward the first one. I would like to have it made to look just like the factory fender badge.

So what you think. If someone can improve on this, feel free to do so.
I could not find any vender who makes this.

Well it is 6AM now, guess I'll take a nap.

That looks nice. I for one, wish they would put "427" on the fender badge of the C6 Z06.

I think the first one looks good. I'm going to be looking for a badge that says 750 HP.

I plan on buying a Z06 505 HP badge when GM makes them available on their new C6 Z06. That is what I'm running with my I/C Magnuson in my 2002 Z06.

I found a site that makes custom badges.

I'm currently having a bunch of Z06 badges to say 447 ci....
As it usually is with custom orders the first pair cost a mint, then every subsequent units are cheap. (I've got a few extra if anyone's looking for a pair).

You can have them say just about anything.

They're not a forum vendor, so I can't post their link, so e-mail me at eclipsems@rogers.com and I'll send you the link.

I already have my chrome/Red insert "427" badges ready for the C6 Z06. These will mount under the "Z06" badge on the fender. These are
4 7/8" x 5/8" and are one piece and mount with 3 speed nuts.

As an option I also have chrome/Black "427" badges which are slightly smaller and are appropriate for hood mounting. They are seperate (3 piece) numbers.

Both kits will come with the speed nut kit for mounting.

Personally, I'd prefer badges like this for a S/C car.....



Leaves an element of mystery, and I'm of the adage of walk softly, but carry a big stick.....

I think posting the horespower on your car is way too cheesey personally, unless it comes with that horespower badge stock. Whatever happened to letting your exhaust note and engine rumble let everyone know that something wasn't quite stock on your car?

There, I said it, let the hanging begin.
