Looks pretty good. If it were me I would remove the camaro logo on the fender. Could probably relocate one of them to the engine bay.

Not sure why Chevy can't do little simple things that people notice such as old school Cross Flags or putting the SS badge on the on the fenders. I'm not a fan of the red white a blue badge. Nothing at all cool about it. I like how Dodge reverts back to the old school stuff such as emblems, graphics and cool colors, scooped hoods. People take notice of simple things like that. Somethings Chevy just doesn't get.

in all honesty, i dont like the additions. maybe because they don’t come on the car to start with, or ive only seen the emblems on old stuff...but it doesn’t look right. doesn’t flow with any portion of the cars mantra. historically, cosmetically or otherwise.

Historically speaking SS emblems were always on the front fender and under rear trunk on 1st gen camaros, with that being said I'm not sure what im gonna do with them yet.

im referencing the history of the car you’re putting the badges on.

I've got silver and black SS emblems on my SS fenders. Matches the silver and black hashmark stripes. I can't swear to this, but I can't think of another SS through all the years that does NOT have "SS" on the fender. Anyhow, I think it looks great, and I think the 6th gen badge looks completely at home. I would remove the Camaro shield badge though, as others have stated.


...on a side note, I purchsed 4th gen fender badges to give the car a more retro look with the original style letters. Didn't like it. Just didn't fit right in my opinion.


As for the back, I prefer the bowtie, but the "SS" looks good too!

I agree, why wouldn't gm put the ss emblem on the fender.

Like others have already said I’m not a fan of the Camaro badge at all,not just in your case.
I will be removing mine,I am thinking the 1LE badge in its place and now also like it on the bumper after seeing yours.

Nice car,don’t take our opinions personally,it’s not like you put flames and side pipes on it

I'm gonna pop it off and see how it looks, I can always put it back. I like the American colors on the fender but I think I agree its one or the other not both.
