Does anyone still make bow tie emblem inserts for 2014

Hi everyone
Does anyone know if someone still sells front and back bow tie emblem inserts for a 2014 SS in black or carbon fiber?
Thx!

I don't know, but I masked off and painted the ones on my 13 SS/RS.. They still look great.

For small jobs like that, I mask off the area, rough up the surface with some 240 grit sandpaper and then clean it thoroughly with 90% alcohol and then spray a couple coats of paint. I've always preferred Krylon's Rust Tough for my small projects. You have to put on thinner coats than Rustoleum but that's because it has more pigment in the paint.

I tried that first. Bought precut vinyl online but I was such a klutz with it, I could never get it to lay right. No one else in the reviews seemed to have the problem, so I'm sure it was just me. The company even sent me another set for free and I screwed those up too.

I’m not a big fan of the vinyl. It stretches and doesn’t fit right

I couldn’t find them for my 2014, so I masked off the back, and plasti dipped mine. And took the front emblem off and dipped it. There’s a good tutorial on YouTube how to get the front emblem off without taking the bumper off. Super easy, fast, cheap, and looks like it came this way
