Yea, the only problem is how? Could a tint shop change it, with vinyl or tint?

That's what I'm thinking. I'll check with my tint guy when I actually get the car and I'll let everybody know.

I was thinking about this myself. My only concern with vinyl is the textured finish of the bowtie allowing the vinyl to adhere properly. Let me know what you guys figure out.

Would be cool for the aftermarket to come up with different center sections. Something that replaces the bowtie with "camaro"

Like this?

I simply used the same method that worked on the front and rear bowtie.
It's probably not as secure as it is sitting atop all the ridges but I never touch it so it just sits there
