Hey forum,

I am putting a new grille on once winter moves on. I wanted to come up with a unique emblem and was thinking since I have the 1956 Chevrolet scripts on the hood, adding the classic chevrolet emblem would help it stand out.

The emblem is on the front of the mid 50's bel air as well as the rear of the 1960's Impalas. Ignore the poor photoshopping job but does this look cool or stupid as a grille emblem? feel free to state your opinion as I am open to hearing what you have to say

 

Love the emblem, but the grille seems like it's missing something. I don't know, maybe a horizontal bar.

 

56 Chevy emblem, nice, but not unique, see the V8 build of Lasater post #909 on page 91

I agree needs a bar or something. Just looks like an after thought stuck on the middle. Or it needs to be flush/recessed mounted.

 

Surfer panel had the idea a decade ago

 

I like it better than the bowtie.

 

So do I , GM would've hit a home run had they put that on the front instead of the cracking gold piece they choose to go with.

 

I see what you mean as it just seems a bit bare. There are not many custom grilles out there for the HHR unfortunately.

 

Thanks for showing me. I didn't know it has already been done. I guess it would still be unique in my area as I have never seen it.

 

I really like the 56 grille emblem, as I said earlier I wish GM had of thought of it!
Let's face it , it's all been done, from my blue paint and red grille and rims, to flame paint jobs and lambo doors , somebody has spent the time and money to do it.
It's not really copying anything , it's applying parts to achieve the look you want.
