Default Restomod Emblems?

Hey what emblems should i use on my 70 coupe that would look restomod? Mydrivers side fenderhas 3 holes in it from the original mustangscript emblem and mypassenger side fenderdoesnt have any holes so i figure i might as well go with a restmod stick on emblem so i dont have to be drilling in my fender. I was thinking about putting the new GT emblem on each side and i measured mine out off my 08 and it would cover two of the 3 holes. I just dont want to put an emblem of something that car isnt and look stupid pulling up to the shows. But i think the GT emblem would look pretty slick. What do yall think?

I'm guessing you really do want something to cover the holes so my recommendation would be to try to find something vintage. I used the crossed flag 427 emblems on mine like the old thunderbolts had and they covered the holes and look kinda cool. I agree that modern emblems would seem out of place.
