Grill with Old School Z28 Emblem

I am putting a grill (from GrillGuy) on my 1997 Silver Z28, and have two 1969 Z/28 emblems. I plan to put one of those on front and one on back.
Is the concensus to put the front emblem offset on the drivers side, or center it in the grill?

The one on back, I plan to replace the stock emblem with the old emblem

I do have the rest of the original set of Z28/Camaro emblems on E-bay item 170002958115

Also, has anyone done the interior replacement of all leather using www.leatherseats.com? My drivers seat bottom, and the top of my passenger seats have completely come apart. I could try to fix just those parts, but wonder how hard it is to buy a leather kit and do the replacement myself.

Thanks for the advice guys,

Offset looks good, but I'd go ahead and go with centered.

I hope to get it mounted tomorrow. (grill and emblem.) I think I agree with what you guys are saying, the centered looks better with there is no grill, but with my grill across the front, I think I'm going to go with offset.

Question, I'm thinking now that I'll use the whole set of emblems, on the sides also. How do you mount those? They have studs, do I actually punch holes in my car? Or cut them off and use a two sided tape?
