It definitely seems like the majority are for number 4. I'm really stuck between 3 and 4, but I think I might be leaning more towards 3, simply because I de-badged the bowtie from the front. But I still like the look of number four...

I'm just stuck.

I painted my bezzels black as well,they turned out great on my RJT just like they did on your IOM!
I think having the blackout strip but also having a black chevy enblem would look good to!

I currently have #4 but with the chrome bezels. Mine is IOM and I left the bowtie alone. I like the gold with the orange. It ties in with my (I don't care what you say, they are not IOM) mismatched mirrors that have a lot more copper in them. Without the bowtie, I think it's to plain and looks like it's missing something.

The Fourth Option...............the Bowtie becomes the focal point that draws your eyes attention and then the message to the brain towards the whole of the back of the car and the theme your trying to get across. Sort of centering the image..............

I did #4 on mine with the addition of black vinyl on the bowtie.

Since so many seem to like number 4, here's another option I cooked up using MS Paint. If I go with number 4, but somehow color-match the gold insert to be IOM (most likely I'll just paint the insert), I'd get something like this:




We'll call this option 5, I guess. That's just sort of jammed together with MS Paint, so it's not super realistic, I guess, but it should be pretty representative of the color scheme and basically what it would look like.


So, for everyone that preferred number 4 before, how about a choice between #4 and the new #5? Would it look better or worse with an IOM center to the bowtie?


For comparison, here's #4 again, so you can see them both together:






I gotta say, I think I'm kind of going with #4 over #5. I'm kind of thinking that #5 is just not enough contrast, and doesn't "pop" the same as #4.
