I think if you are going to do that you should paint the center black with another color around the border of the inside, maybe a red to match the Red SS. Then paint the chrome colored part grey.

I agree..or maybe even CGM where the gold is (instead of black) outlined in red where the chrome is. That would look sharp on both the front and the back imo

Probably can't go wrong with either black or CGM bowties though.

Paint idea sounds great. Did you consider overlays ? Here's one source - http://www.bigwormmotorsports.com/camaro-emblems.htm

Solid color and some with graphics - at least to give you some ideas...
