Has anyone else used both emblems on their car, and if so which one where and why? What are others thoughts on using both ? Kinda like using the AC to identify the Body/frame manufacture and the Cobra to identify the name of the car, like Ford - Mustang, AC - Cobra?

Just wondering I personaly have not seen both used on the same vehicle and will do what I like best in the end, but looking for thoughts and comments.

Some people use the AC steering wheel emblem, with the Cobra nose and trunk. I have never seen one with a different nose and trunk emblem, I would think it would look odd.

CSX3000 cars had Cobra nose and trunk, and on the steering wheel. Two different Cobra steering wheel emblems were used (black/silver and red/white/blue).

The COB/COX cars should have had all AC badges. Maybe Ron or Ned could chime in more on that.
