replacing the front and rear emblems

I am new to the forum and would first like to say I love my new to me HHR. Its an '06 Daytona Blue 2 LT. So far i have lowered it a little more than 1.5 inches all the way around using stock ss/sc cobalt springs, rides great and for a great price ($ 70.00 shipped) off the sscobalt forum. i'm working on putting tweed in the interior and have painted my rear brake drums. Bought an aftermarket air intake from WeaponR if anybody is interested, great price, a little bit of a hassle installing but for the price worth it.

Anyway I wanted to know if anybody knew what size the emblems were. Are they the same size as the full size trucks? I know they aren't the same as the blazers and S-10s, we have one of each of those also. I am looking for billet emblems to replace the ones i've got. If anybody has any suggestions please let me know.

So far, no one has had any luck finding billet or chrome replacements. All I've seen are either too big or too small.

BTW, welcome!

An S-10 billet bowtie works for the rear. I never tried the front before I changed grilles.

Very smooth weld spots, sensor fits like its supposed to, the mounting bracket and install is the only negative i've found, getting pics tonight.
The website in the above post is where i got mine from, the price on the weapon-r website is a suggested MSRP, so they are out there for cheaper just have to look.

It is slightly smaller, but it creates an outlined effect that still looks good. Also you will have to straighten it a little, since it's curved for an S-10 grille. Pic
