Front fender badges
 
Are the 63 lemans front fender badges supposed to have the color red in them. Mine are black and chrome vs. red and chrome like the reproductions. Also, what is the rear quarter badge supposed to look like. Mine is all chrome as if it was stripped and re-chromed....

Thanks

The front badges have red in the low areas and the rear quarters have white inside. Both are available as repros and show up on ebay regularly.

Nothing beats NOS in the GM box for color matching parts!

Thank you guys, now I know I'll need new badges. After looking at mine closer, someone painted the red parts black.

Does anyone have a picture of the correct quarter badge?

Thanks!

Brad

Pete, are those for sale?

Here a pic of the back badge, it's messed up too. Looks like it's all chrome, but it's supposed to have white?

Go to a hobby shop & get the little bottles of Testors enamel paint & some small brushes. Repaint them yourself!!
