I got myself a black on black 2010 camaro and i just bought black wheels this year and im looking for black bowties to make it even more stealth. I went to a few websites and even the dealership and couldn't find anything for some reason. I know some of you have done this already, any advice?

I went to Canadian Tire picked up some black stick on vinyl $10.00 +- and did it myself. If you are good with an exacto it's a piece of cake.

They go where the gold part of the bowtie emblems are so the chrome goes around the outside edge.

Not a problem I put it on last summer and it still looks like new. I wash the car at least once a week.

blkngldbabe · 04-27-2010, 08:56 AM

I have them here at my dealership. If anyone in the GTA wants them let me know and I'll bring in more.

I'm not keen on removing the rear bowtie, as I'm worried about scuffing/removing the paint/clearcoat. Are there any other options? Is there anyone in Ontario making pre-cut decals? I think that's the route I want to go.

You don't need to remove the rear one to put in the black ones.

Quote:

Back Bowtie: Take the largest size drill bit that you have and slowly begin to drill through the
middle of the factory gold bowtie. As you drill deeper eventually there will be white shavings coming off of the gold bowtie. When you drill through the gold bowtie stop drilling and take a flat head screw driver and/or a small pick device and pop out the factory bowtie threw the drilling in the middle. After you have removed all of the existing gold factory bowtie, now take your new DefenderWorx Replacement Bowtie and remove the film from the 3M Automotive tape. Place the DefenderWorx Bowtie in the middle of the housing where the old factory bowtie was and enjoy!
