Good Idea or Bad?

OK...So I really HATE my gold bowtie, I want to paint it Hot Pink, because I think with the black car it would look really good, but I have been seeing the SS badges for the front now and I like those too...So, my question is, do you think the hot pink bowtie would look good or should i just get the ss? Thanks

i was definitely thinking pink accents!! i want the hot pink and black, i have a pink sc palm tree decal on the rear window which gave me the idea with the two colors..i left the ss on the trunk, but taking that off. so if i do the pink ss on the side is that the same way as doing the front emblem?

Get the BIG TRAILBLAZER SS's and put them up from. (Also on the Imapalla and Monte Carlo) I'd paint them pink and put them upfront. Would be a nice match imo

I would imagine painting those badges would be the same as painting a bowite. I know most people remove the bowtie from the back but a naked backend with nothing but the pink bowtie might finish it off. front and back pink bowties with pink side SS emblems

Just enough pink to say "Hey look at me, I am a bad ass chick"

that might be a little much for my taste.... but on the right rim it might look nasty.

Konig Unknowns that are Pink and Black instead of Silver and Black?

If you're really not sure how it looks, take a digital picture of your car, and change the bowtie picture to pink in photoshop / paint. This should give you a general idea of what it'll look like without having to spend a dime.

LOL, If I saw a Pink SS on the front of a cobalt in my rear mirror, I'd ******* pull over 3 lanes to the right as soon as I could, possibly even take an exit and park for a coffee. I like my car too much just the way it is, don't need to get into any accidents.

yeah...you would pull over because the hotness of it would be blinding you and you would not want to get intimidated by the super sexiness of it all

also...yes pink calipers would be nice!...will look sweet with the black rims

Is this a real thread?

I started to laugh about it but then I realized that it didn't look like anyone was joking.
Pink and Black don't mix, this isn't Hot Topic you're driving

For a girl I dont see a problem with it at all. I think the colors could be pulled off. For wheels, get the Konig Hotswaps and paint the accent piece hot pink to match.

I believe PinkStripedCobalt would disagree. and last time I checked... Pink and Black actually go really good together. Just not on a guys car

Those wheels are WAAAAY too heavy. They weigh something like 55lbs a piece before tires. Id get something with a black finish and paint on top of that.

Yeah, I've seen her pink stripe (snicker) I'm not convinced that Pink and Black belong together.
But then again I
:am a guy, and therefore am not qualified to give my opinion on color matching
:am not a big fan of "Goth"
:don't have a vagina......wait.....no I don't
:got raped by a large black man in a pink shirt...actually it was NJHK

I just think that Black and Purple or Black and Red go better together....or just purple..have you SEEN Donna's car?
