I hate how the gold bowties look on my black SS/TC.

I like how the black bowties look but am not totally sold. What else have people done with the front bowtie? Anyone try white with a black 'balt? How bout black on the bowtie but paint the surrounding outline white?

Any other ideas are more than welcomed. I am going to debadge the rear bowtie and I think the SS on the front looks clean but isn't for me. Thanks guys.

 

paint it black but leave the silver edges.

 

I have moved it up a little since I took this pic, but you get the point

 

My Cobalt is silver, but I painted mine all black...I didn't sand the chrome part though and that paint was coming off so mine now looks like ^. It looks OK (better with the chrome than all black), but I'm going to re-do it...either black with silver where it was chrome or vice versa...silver bowtie and black where it was chrome. Probably the latter.

I think white on black would look pretty good, but do you have any color scheme at all for the rest of the car or is everything black?

 

chameleon paint

 

Thanks zach now everyones gonna have my bowtie lol






this is what he is talking about its all 1 paint job just different colors from diff angles

 

 

lalz tell me you put it on upside down....

 

lol omg i know i was like wtf looking at it all close, and when i looked at the other pics of bow ties they dont look shaped like that. idk

 

Mine was painted black when I bought it but had a million rock chips in it so I was lazy and just put black vinyl over the emblem. Looks good - for now.

 

lol..I think suppose to look like this.



I don't got a pic but I seen people do CF Chevy bowties too.

 

how much did that cost btw? not that im ever gonna do it but ive always thought of getting my car painted two toned black like the27thelement on the top but it would be awesome to have it all lbm from one angle and two toned from another

 

i love the solid color look better, when i get my blck cobalt im doing the bowties in bed liner

 

bedliner?

 

heres mine i jus took this pic 2 min. ago

 

 

U know the stuff they put in bck of trucks, i saw it dne on a blck nissan exterra at this audio and custom shop and it was BAMF! lol

it comes in cans to spray

 

lol i know we use it all the time at work.... just an interesting theory

 

here are mine. red up front and black in the back.









just masked off the silver and painted it.

 

How much of a texture does that have on it? I'm interested to see how that turns out.

That looks sweet

Yeah, the whole thing is black as of now and for a black cobalt, it's lookin lik black with silver outline is the safe choice.

those look sweet, that's a sick ride you got there cesar.

 

Thanks for the compliment!

 

Please don't get his head big, please don't.

 

Aww! A bit jealous there. It's ok. Ur rides pretty.

 

Actually he's handsome.

 

I dont have a pic, but mine's done in metallic black, the whole thing. But I also have a billet grill so it looks different anyway, lol...
