Welcome! Thanks for sharing the great pictures. I'm jealous of your single bar grill, but IMHO it looks even better without the extra star on the hood. Keep visiting!

Welcome and best wishes with your car!

The hood ornament is a very personal and subjective issue. For me, two stars up front is too much. The grille OR the hood, but not both. The second photo looks better.

Think it looks better with the flat ornament, but whatever makes you happy.

Welcome!

I have the ornament on my car but I also do not have on my grill. Some people prefer only one logo, its totally person preference.

I agree with Sportstick. 2 stars is 1 star too many, however this is coming from a person who doesn't like emblems/advertising in general. Do not let our opinions discourage you in any way...variety is also a good thing.

I agree with the others, the sport grill looks better without the star.

Although I prefer the elegant look of the classic grill and star over the one with the big star
