Default Suggestions Please

So - flashing back to older Monte's (I'm thinking of a '79 my uncle has) and it has the script "Monte Carlo" as well as the night shield clipped on the hood and there's one on the trunk. My trunk is de-badged but I want to re-add the script to the back and then a knight badge instead of a Chevy logo.

Where I'd like some suggestions is I'm thinking about putting 2 Monte script emblems on the sides (but not the large ones and not behind the door like factory).

I'm thinking of putting them on the front quarter. What do you think?

I feel the knight would be sharp on the rear ! I would pass on the script on the front quaters.

I pesonally would vote no on the script ..But you are the one driving it and a car has to be personalized to the driver's taste.

Leave the Chevy logo and add the Knight shield in the lower right corner of the trunk

Hi `Mike,
I like the debadged look, but it's your Monte Carlo & the one that see's it the most...It's great to find out what other's think, but you are the one in control

Let us know what you decide....It is a Chevrolet Monte Carlo or was one.....It's now your ride & you can do anything you want to `do 2 it ~> Make it `Yours

Hey, what type of car is that ?
. It's my Car
It was made by Chevrolet & they called it a Monte Carlo, but now it's all mine : ) & I'll call it what I want 2 4-Sure

I personally like the script where GM used it on the lower part of the rear quarters (but in '04 they left the script off on mine). Just my taste.

I like the knights crest and find it interesting how some of the older Montes had the crest all over the car and now, next to no where or NOT at all. Hence part of the reason I am leaving my crest on the front nose. Since I don't think you have an SS model, the crest might look sharp next to the Monte Carlo script, again, I'm thinking lower rear quarters.

Not a fan of it on the fenders...
