Default Chrome V8 Emblem

Anyone have any pics? I did a search and came up with a pic of a gold emblem on a gold SC4, but I'm looking for a chrome badge to place on my black SC4 - any pics and or suggestions on which badge would look best? This will go on the right hand side of the trunk.

The GX470's have the V8 emblem, as well as the Tundra/Sequoia SR5's......go to the dealer(s) and ask the parts guys to bring out all the V8 emblems....then you can choose which one looks best....

Hey, I was looking for a V8 emblem myself & found a perfect match. If you want the same font & style as the other emblems get the fender V8 emblems for an ENVOY 2003-2004.. If you already bought some you may want to buy these and return the others because mine looks so close to factory, nobody believes its off of a GMC. Ill post pictures tonight or tomorrow. Trust me on this...
plus there only like 4.00 new from gmc so dont sweat it.

I thought I had the pic. There is a SC, I think an owner overseas, he has SSR wheels, yellow calipers, the car is green. He added V-8 badges on the front quarter panels. looked good.

FOUND IT!

Is the Soarer Limited the same as the Soarer Active?
If not what does the Limited mean?

I am sure that V-8 is from the Landcruiser/LX 470. I could not find the Envoy emblem and quite frankly, a GM part on a Lexus is

The Limited maybe lifted from another vehicle. Not sure.

If you like the "limited" Im sure auto zone has them in stock but im happy with the envoy. If it HAS to be a toyota part then screw a v8 badge on it from a lx470 but if your trying to match the style & can afford $4.00 then go to gmc. I dont think any die-hard soarer owners are gonna lose respect over your emblem.... even tho it adds 50hp.

This picture isnt so great but it gives you an idea... I dont have the p/n but if you call any gmc dealer they'll have them in stock and know exactly what your talking about without a p/n.

That's looks really nice SC400_2nV! I was driving next to an Envoy yesterday, and was trying to check out the V8 emblem, but I couldn't really get a clear look. This gives me a great view . Although it IS a little different than the V8 emblem from a toyota V8 emblem, it still looks good.
(Incase there are people wondering what the difference is, the GMC V is a little larger than the 8, while the Toyota emblem has the same size V and 8.)
