Title: Trying to find new Chev Wrangler emblems, any out there??
Post by: 87 Wrangler on July 31, 2014, 05:06:33 am
Looking for new emblems and ornament for my 87 Wrangler (Canadian only edition). Trying to find old GM stock but no luck as of yet. Truck was made in Flint Michigan, called GM but they conveniently forgot they made these trucks. New or used, anyone know where else to look?

     At this point I would suggest you keep scouring the web looking for any hint of them, you might get lucky.  If I were you though, I would have a company who makes emblems make me some more if possible.

There was a NOS Wrangler hood ornament on eBay a couple of years ago. Brought over $200.00 iirc.

I snagged the pictures from the listing. If you like I can post them.

     It sounded like you had your old one's and just wanted new one's.  If that is the case anybody who makes emblems would be able to do it, you just need to shop around for pricing.  If you do not, then your will need at least a photo and how big they should be and do a search for custom emblems, they are the one's who do custom stuff.

Sounds good thanks.
Yes mine are still in decent shape, hood emblem got hit with a rock this week and spider cracked, I'm worried I won't be able to get another one. Didn't realize they were so rare. Kicking my but for not buying up all the old gm stock 10 years ago! Managed to get original gm roof lights tho. Wow what a difference from the old ones!
