Looks good, man. Personally, I would have kept the RS badges, but that's because I own an LS and RS badges are still badges of honor...lol. The clean look is also nice, and you did a good job.

you could also do a bowtie delete, I personally love that look. You can find the part on most Camaro websites if you type in "Bowtie Delete" pretty simple fix.

also here is a link for plasti-dipping emblems http://youtu.be/0GB3QEAPmoI

I think one of the best options we have here at Apex for the bow tie are the GM licensed 6061- aircraft aluminum billet bowtie inserts. They are very nice. If you are looking to save some $, the vinyl blackouts are not bad, but have nowhere near the look of the inserts.

the prices vary, depending on wether you are getting an insert, just front/rear or both, or if you get the entire replacement badge (not an insert, replaces the out ring as well)

As far as I know, they are only available in polished or black. That being said, if the polished doesn't have any clear on it, then it could certainly be bright dipped in red. Let me give a shout to the owner of the company and see what is possible.

All badges gone except front bowtie (blacked out), still debating a solution for removing that one...









Wasn't sure about the rear one but like it now. Just need to get rid of that front one!
