I cut it with a heated razor knife. I would leave 1/8" or 3/16" of the interior for a lip if I did it again.

I did it to remove the gold bowtie which is too big IMO but also airflow.

I may cut the gold out of the bowtie and then spray the chrome outer bowtie with a semi-opaque black paint and put it back in.

Hubby removed the Camaro letters on the sides and blacked out the front/back bowties. Also Plasti-dipped the the ZL1 hood emblems. Looks nice all dark, gives it a more menacing look, IMO.

Izzat a L7Z? A one of a kind COPO, COOL!

I bet you have a 7IO filler cap, too.

I like the flowtie, bowtie cutout by Bone Stock; Nice Touch!!

I'm getting somewhat annoyed that my MF towels are getting caught on corners of the badges and pulling threads out,
but I'd like to keep the badges...

ah... conundrum, conundrum

Pics?

Thx.
Leave them on. Nothing makes a Ferrari, Mercedes SLR/AMG or owner madder than getting beat on the street than a CHEVY.... $250 ,000.00 versus under $70k.

I really like the look of the grill with the bowtie cut out. That is super cool. I put a solid black bowtie in place of the gold one one mine because I think the gold is hideous but I like the look of yours better than having a bowtie in there. Less weight and more airflow too.

I cut the bow tie out since this pic and tinted the turn signals I should have some new pics this weekend after the show. Hood badges are Satin Black

Leave that lip on the inside if you want an option to re-insert a bowtie later.

I understand the "Camaro" and bowties...

Why would you want to remove the ZL1 tags? It sets the car apart from all the other Camaro's.

That's my issue now after I removed my badges. Everyone is asking me if I have an SS. Picked up some all black badges to put back on soon.

I removed the Camaro letters and blacked out the rest, like the ZL1, front, back and hood.
