I saw these pis of the camaro. People fuss about the location of the bowtie. Well I tell you what. Not having one there makes the car look silly as hell. It is like you took the man hood away from the man. Just went to a scary visual place.

I feel that we should have pride in the manufacturer. I probably won't remove my GM logos, and I may keep the bowtie on the front if the SS doesn't look good in the center.

the thing i wanna do is paint the little lettering of GM on the side where the badging is body color. So it will Be like a silver outline with my proudness of GM in IOM lettering

i think that looks sick with out a bowtie

makes it look like a supercar of some sort

pinkcamaro10 · 09-23-2008, 01:24 AM

it looks like its missing part of its "face"

Replace bowtie with SS badge. Enough said. If you don't know it's a Chevy, you are not a car person...in fact you are not "carworthy".

stermiester · 09-23-2008, 02:04 AM

Regular SS for base SS, red SS for SS/RS, red RS for LT/RS, bowtie for LS and LT (w/o RS)

logan1080 · 09-23-2008, 11:15 AM

I am going to get the grill inserts anyway so the bowtie will be deleted.

If they don't know it's a Chevy, I think that this is an opportunity to draw some attention to the Chevy line. That's one reason my bowtie may stay.

CWIweldace · 09-23-2008, 12:26 PM

My bowtie will be black

MB2010CC · 09-23-2008, 12:33 PM

Ditto^^^

Kyle2k · 09-23-2008, 05:08 PM

The bowtie seems to add contrast to the car, no matter what color the bowtie is, I think it should stay on the nose!

EllwynX · 09-23-2008, 06:23 PM

I want the grille insert also. So there won't be a bowtie on mine.

On the regular grille though, it doesn't look right without the bowtie.

lalometalik · 09-23-2008, 06:34 PM

i want a giant swastika on the front!

ok jk

i would be content with the bowtie, but the 'SS' badge would be that much better IMO

Yeah Mine Too.. Or Maybe Body Color Matched...

headpunter · 09-23-2008, 07:55 PM

mine will be blue to signify its homebuilt ZL1 status, it may just not have one on the front or atleast were you would expect it on the front

oldbowtie · 09-24-2008, 07:48 PM

I'll leave it the way it is (gold bowtie with SS off to the side). What would you expect from "Old Bowtie"?

did'nt mention before...cars I've owned:

1970 Chevelle (1974 to 1991)
1966 Chevelle (1971 to 2007)

fastball · 09-24-2008, 09:50 PM

I am seriously considering replacing my bowtie with the Camaro shield if it is not already on the car somewhere.

Can someone photo shop a Camaro badge on to the front of one from the Indy show?
