Picked up what we believe is a grill from a 78 Chevy truck for the buggy. Cut it down and it fits good but it's missing the bowtie emblem. I see the factory emblem is gold colored but wasn't sure if anyone knows of a billet emblem maybe that would fit this grill?
 
Kert might be the best bet. This doesn't go old enough and that doesn't state a year. Looking for one that will fit in the spot for the factory emblem which is about 8" wide and 2.75" tall
 
Id gladly spend the time to draw one up on cad at home and send a dxf file to someone (kert) to be cut :dunno:


Would just need some dimensions
 
Go to eBay search "chevy emblem" pick a color. Tons of them, dirt cheap. Some even have LED lights.
 
Once I got my computer up again I was able to find the part number for the factory emblem them came across this one for a lot cheaper than a good one with the gold insert still in it. I think the all chrome would look better on the painted black grill on the black and grey buggy. If the chrome is too much I'll paint the inside where the gold would normally be with some hammered grey to batch the tubing.
