I am aware that the texture of the intended mounting surfaces could be a factor. But, in your experience, if applicable, is the 3M tape strong enough to still form a descent bond? Also, if there is a combination of any both the "FIFTY" and "1LE" badges that you think would look good, I'd like to know. Though my car is a 1LE, I do take pride in showing it at car shows so I am mindful of the fact of too much might not be good.
Anyway, please let me know what you think when you get a change to respond. I value your opinion. If pictures might help, I do plan to take some with dry-fitment as it likely will help me as well to decide. By the way, I apologize for the breaks. Learned only 1000 characters allowed per message.
Warm regards,

Another idea that has come to my mind is placement of EmblemPros 1LE badges I have ordered (4); 3 are medium size, 1 is the large size. The large size may go on my strut tower brace if I think it will be better than what I have on there now. As for the 4 medium sizes, one will be going on the rear bumper opposite the SS badge. I am considering placement of the remaining 3 as follows:
1) On the passenger side of dash (rather than the "FIFTY" emblem) along with 2) one each centered on the upper door trim panels.

Hey Matt,
Hope you and your family are doing well. As you may know, I subscribe to your YT channel; enjoy watching all of your videos. Writing to you to get your input on some cosmetic mods I'm considering for some badge placements. Recently, I bought 2 "FIFTY" badges from River City Creations painted to match my HBM 1LE (HBM with the 50th anniv. orange "I"). I bought them because I was blown away by how nice looking they were even though I had no idea where I was going to put them. I'm seeking your opinion on where I could place them, or not at all. The following are some ideas:
1) On either side of the matte black hood (like you did with the LT1 emblems on yours),
2) One on the OEM splitter; the other on the rear spoiler,
3) One each centered on the plastic upper door panels (1SS),
4) One on the passenger side of the dash; the other on the rear spoiler, or
5) One each along the lower edge on the exterior of the quarter glass.
