Default Looking for Knight Crest...

I bought my 2007 Chevrolet Monte Carlo a few weeks ago, and it is the 3rd different generation of Monte Carlo I've owned now, so I'm a tad devoted to the brand, but one of the things that is bugging me about this latest generation, besides the lack of cursive for the tail of the car, is the fact that there is NO Knight Crest anywhere.

Does anyone here know where I can look online for a Knight Crest, or will I honestly be better off rummaging through dumps looking for old 2000-2005 Monte Carlo's?

You could start by doing a little bit of work by searching... ebay, amazon.. they're out there.

You could get a vinyl done, what kind or how big are you looking for? They're not on the 7th gens for a reason, because they switched the script and everything so it just didn't really fit

I wouldn't come here if I already didn't do some searching first, they aren't as easy to find as I expected them to be.

I'm not looking for a vinyl one really, I'm looking for the same one's that are on the 6th gen models. I am not going to rush into trying to put one on, but it shouldn't be too difficult to just get two of them, and put them in the same area the impala antelope crest would be on the same year of cars, would it?

I've thought about only getting one and putting it in the grill, but I would need to replace the entire grill to something that would make the crest look decent there, and that would involve some custom made grills to fit one in there I'd think.

Sure, I'm interested Ashley. It would be easier then buying one on ebay.

Just so you know, putting them on the c-pillar like the Impala is how they were on the base model in the 6th Gens.

Good luck getting the heritage back into the name though!

Persoanlly if I ever get an LTZ which is the model I want or an SS (06/07) I would change all the fonts to the script at least lol dress it up a bit. Not a huge fan of the 06+ models they're cool but the look a bit basic too me. But I would love one.
