CAMARO trunk lettering

Just installed these, not sure how I feel about them. I had the rear bowtie shaved and other than these letters I just put on, there are no badges on the outside of the car at all.

I also put a set of letters on the dash....not sure how I feel about them either.

Comments are appreciated!!!!!

I personally think they are too large. I debadged the side emblems and put them on the back. I spaced it so it didn't stretch all the way across the back but more centered. I think it looks funny with the letters so far apart.

I like the one on the dash. Not the best pic of mine but here ya go

They are the letters from the fenders....I thought they'd be too small, but they do look kinda big. I do like yours Angie7, but I was looking at a few different spacing pics online and like the wide spacing the best for some reason.

Hmmm I guess with them spaced far apart it makes them look bigger to me

Red letters on IOM would look funny I think. Plus you wouldn't really be able to see them, in which case I'd rather leave them off. I like them being chrome because they match the taillight bezels and exhaust tips, but painting them is an option.

And ya, far apart makes them look big for some reason....I don't know why.

Question

If it were me paint them black and black out bezels along with darken tail lights and reverse lights. Would also paint dash letters black... That would look sick

Excuse question mark typing on iPad mini

Spacing is perfect on the rear...white camaro way to close....I have a blackout panel on mine and thought about doing mine in IOM with the black

I think they look good. I am a fan of having them closer together, like on Angie's. But I like your's too!

I think it looks cool to - I would leave it as is.
Probably just takes a little time to get used to ...
