So I was doubtful this thread would ever amount to a "build" thread.....but, I guess it was only a matter of time.

Some new toys on the way!!

AAC ghosted LED side markers in Silver Ice Metallic:

AAC LED conversion (dome and trunk), in White:

AAC License plate LEDs:

And from Tom Henry Chevrolet, Chevy bowties, interior painted Carbon flash metallic...

I'll decide whether or not to paint the chrome edge an anodized red...or just keep it black and chrome. Chances are going for the red.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a good DIY for replacing (or removing) the bowties?

It's the little things that make a difference to me...I'll be honest, I really, REALLY love the clean sharp look of my car in stock form. And.....I've got my eye on the 6th gen Camaro we can't see, yet. If the new Corvette is any indication of design direction and performance/technology - it should be killer! Maybe I'll look for one in the second model year, after this one is paid off...so I'm not going to pump a ton of extra money into this one just yet...

Front bowtie just pulls off. Though removing the upper radiator shroud makes it easier as you can push the tabs out from the back.

Well, that's good to know - thanks. I was mortified I might have had to take the whole front end off for something simple.

I'm leaning that way. Changed my signature to reflect that.
