UNLESS you put the GTS in the top left corner and move the targa down a bit...but then I think it would look crowded...
Yeah, I think it will look too crowded. I assume the "targa' is about .9" high?

Thanks again for all of the help. I think I will stick with my first thought, having "targa" painted Miami Blue and leaving the rear as-is. I will be sure to post pics here when it gets done.

I also heard back from Suncoast and they have a factory emblem in stock and it has an adhesive backing and no posts/screws, which again were on older Targa cars and those were made of metal.

I think you chose wisely. The targa on the bar is iconic, so leaving it as it, but with a touch of color will add to the classiness of your new whip.
