Default GM emblems on new cars

has anybody noticed that GM has put their emblem on all the new cars on the sides? I noticed at the detroit auto show, i think its a nice touch.. its a small silver GM logo between where you have the front doors and the front wheels

and my favorite cars there.. the new camaro, new escelade & tahoe, CLS55 Amg merc, STS-V, and my most fave was the red gto with autocross bodykit (very sexy)

I like it so much I sorta copied the idea...bought a set of 2nd Gen Aurora "4.0" badges in gold and located them on the side fenders in the same locale that GM is putting those new nameplates.

My buddy "acquired" some V8 badges that they put on the new explorer XLTs and put them in that location on his grand marquis. I think it'* a good spot for bages.
