If you look on ebay you can fin OG ones for $10-$20. I got 2 of them on there about 6 months ago for $15 each. I just brought them to the sandblaster and repainted em. They were all rusty and pitted but for the price you cant beat it!!

I bought one from "Pimppride" to replace my what I thought to be crusty bent up OG emblem. After taking it down to the body shop to compare it, I quickly changed my mind to keep the OG one. It was just the cheap repaint that made it looked crusty. The Pimp emblem did not have the bend going down the center like the OG one has and you cant beat the fit the OG gives you. Not to knock it too much, it does seem to be pretty sturdy and the screw tabs were a plus. After spending 25+ shipping I'll go ahead and keep my OG.
