If it's for a license plate, the meaning is the same. There's a chance that someone already had a plate with FIFTY on it, so an alternative spelling might be the F1FTY.

If you don't know the difference, you probably don't belong.

kiddingggggggggg

At least here, the "1" is more cursive and blends in better with the writing.... I asked the same question as you did a few months ago, and was advised to go with the 1, as opposed to the I. It does look better IMO.

Here is mine......

Sorry for the HUGE pic........Can't figure out how to make it smaller.......

I personally would hate the fifty badges all over my car and would be spending money on swapping out everything. Was very glad my 2018 didn't have it on the bottom of the steering wheel, it just looks tacky vs. the normal SS ect.

Hmmmm...not sure I understand...my grade school math says 2017-1967=50.

Aren’t only 2017 model year Camaros considered FIFTY / F1FTY? I have the 50th Anniversary trim...most 2017s don’t.

Is that the distinction between FIFTY and F1FTY? Either way, I don’t see how a 2018 qualifies.

Yup, 2017 models received the Fifty steering wheel badge to commemorate the fifty-year anniversary, but the Fifty package was something else:
