Custom Bow Tie question - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hey guys ! I am looking up some info for custom bow ties. I would like to have the Cyber Gray on the inside with the chrome outside. Is there someone whom may sell a decal insert , or a bow tie kit ? I know River City used to sell them but their website seems to be down. Any suggestions?

Thank you, I will have a look!

You are welcome. Good luck. You could also paint your own, not that hard to do.

Vinyl works, as well.

Thanks for the info guys! Lookin good BLU DUCE! The wife just got a Crikut and I was able to find the correct vinyl code for the CGM through RVINYL. So we bought a sheet and I am going with the vinyl advice and try my hand at making the insert lol.

A little heat to get it to lay down will help. If there are a few bubbles in it after you are done a warm sunny day will normally take care of that.

I removed all mine. Kinda like the clean retro look.

I have a heat gun and figured the front may be a lil tricky due to the curves, and may need some stretching when applying and hopefully no bubbles. The rear looks pretty straight forward.

I will keep you guys posted on the trial and errors lol. But shouldn't be a difficult thing.

Basic vinyl will not stretch a whole lot so just keep that in mind. The front will be the harder of the two for sure. The back is easy. I covered mine in black before I replaced the rear one with a illuminated outside and CGM color matched to the bowtie. I didn’t put one back in the front when I installed the heritage.

I did the front in two pieces. Put the cut line directly in the center and worked each piece from the center out.
