Supercharged Emblem?

To finish off Project SportRunner I've thought about adding some SC'd emblems to the front doors at the indention similar to how the "Sport Edition" badge was placed on the 02 models.

I had an emblem like this in mind - about 1/2" tall by 6" long. Anyone have opinions on where to find a decent emblem? Most on ebay are crap.

This is supposedly off a GM vehicle with PN 92084151 but I don't find it online at any GM parts suppliers.

ebay has the OEM SC'd emblems all over the place and they are actually the real thing.

Hey Speedy, didn't you get the TRD emblems with your SC? I haven't put mine on but they look pretty nice.

Check out STYLIN' CONCEPTS. They have all that swag. Although a little overpriced IMHO. Take care.

Yeah, I got those, but don't like them. I'm looking for something that more closely matches the factory emblems on the rear hatch.

I may give a GM dealer a call tomorrow to see if they can some how find that part number I put in the original post. It's supposedly from some SC'd Pontiac and is all metal and chromed. The letters are attached together by small pieces between them at the bottom as well.

Funny you should ask today I was thinking the same thing after seeing a nissian pick up with that supercharged emblem on it.
The owner told me it was a factory set up so I was thinking nissian may be the answer looks almost identical to the one in your picture but higher quility.
I was just looking at nissian and they don't give you the build your truck thing but they seem to only have 2 trucks the frontier and titan so should be easy to find the right truck anyway.
I would like to know when you do find out what they are gooing for if you can get them

I'll check the Nissans and see what I can see.

I'll let you guys know what I come up with, but you can bet your butts it'll look factory when done.

Found what I'm looking for. These are solid chrome. Now the question is 6" x 1/2" or 10" x 3/4".

Need opinions.

Looks nice, it would be better if you could get an emblem with font that actually matches the rest of the emblems, but that would be hard to get I'm sure

I'd go with the smaller one

I drew it out on paper and think the smaller is better as well.

Yeah matching fonts would rock, but that ain't gonna happen.

The only way that will happen is if you get all custom lettering. I know that there is some place on the web that lets you order specific letters, all chrome and stuff. but the selection of fonts was small, and I don't remember if they were plastic of metal

I wish I knew the link or whatever

A little pricey at $3 a letter and they were a little big for my project, but cool non-the-less.
