Black out bowties
Ive seen several cars around here with the gold on the bowties tinted or spray painted and I want this done to my black 2SS, can anyone recommend where I can have this done. Kid at my dealership does great work but wants me to take them off of the car. Just want them done neatly.
Thanks, DH |

I did mine red with vinyl decals off of ebay for about $10. It took twenty minutes and looks good. You can get what ever color you want and if you get tired of it, peel it off.

Give Big Worm in Fort WOrth a shout they did mine..Took them all of about 15 min. Had them about 1 year now with no issues. They did a great job and I would use them again....Think less than 30 bucks for both installed

honestly i went to a vinyl shop, told them i wanted shiny black vinyl, they cut a piece larger than i needed, said i could give them whatever i felt like paying for it, i had $3 in ones on me so i gave them that, and i walked out the door.
i did both of my friend's bowties and had a lot left over to play around with (still have some) including putting stripes on my 1/18 scale model camaro and a couple other non-camaro-related projects just for fun it can be done really cheaply with vinyl and it's not hard to cut it to shape yourself. just use a razor (i used an x-acto knife) to cut it to shape after you smooth it over the gold section and be careful. i didn't even charge my friend to do it for him cuz he over-paid me for painting his tailight bezels haha

I guess all about ease.....Why worry when someone else can put on that has done many times. I have seen many try and difficult getting smooth exp around certain areas of the bow tie.
