Austin Barnett's Custom Emblem Work IS Perfection
I will not be posting a picture of my custom fender emblems but Austin does have a website where he has showcased many of the ones he has produced.

I am an extremely picky person, much like most of you out there.
The emblems I received from Austin were nothing short of perfection, they could not have turned out any better, in fact GM should call Austin for help on them if they have not already.
If you have been thinking of doing this, he will customize it just the way you want and it's worth every penny. And no it doesn't mean you have to have a ZO6 if you have the badges, there are a lot of designs you do not have to make it look like the factory Zo6 badge. Im just saying that because I have a coupe
Thanks again Austin

while he does do good work, he never responds to PM's or to emails.
i have inquired multiple times in the past and received zero responses from him.

There have been lots of posts here showing his work - the guy has a real talent for making the emblems. Didn't know he wasn't on the forum anymore, but then again I haven't seen any posts from him in a long time.

His business card is in his photo album with his office and cell phone numbers.

YOu probably should test fit them before peeling off the adhesive strips. I got a set from Poland (Nowhere the quality, but only cost @30 for 3, and they wer completely flat. When a placed them, there was an air gap in the center that had to be bent a little.

Austin has double sided tape already on the back you just peel, do the measuring thats in the service manual and put on the emblems

Austin does great work. Had him make a custom front emblem for me and couldn't be happier, it wasn't cheap but, neither is his work.
