Sorry Mike/Chibi, did not mean to steel your thunder 
Funny how these things pan out.
Glad the SS badge worked!! What adhesive did you use to apply it?

Looks great! I debadged part of my monte and the glue was such a pain to get off. I tried everything from WD40 to bug and tar remover to goo gone. The glue was oxidized pretty badly unfortunately.

Goof Off (the really smelly one, not the spray one) worked like a charm. Make sure it's also a very warm day and the sun is shining on the car 
I used 3M adhesive double sided tape to put the SS on.

Stock look was black Monte Carlo scripts. So it's a modification to match my painted bottom trim :p

I never understood their logic behind making the badges the same color as the car. The Monte Carlo badge on my trunk lid is like that too. Kind of a ghost badge thing I guess.
Anyway, I like the addition of the silver badges Mike. That's the way they should've done it from the factory. Looks tons better.
