my new bowtie

i posted this on another forum while the site was down and i thought i would get .net's opinions as well. i got myself a back up set of bowties off ebay last week. one arrived yesterday [the rear, which came with the "cobalt" letters] so i tore it apart and painted it black. anyway, as i was painting and correcting fingerprint marks i came up with this little idea and was wondering what everyone thought...



nothing is glued together yet, i wanted to get as many opinions as possible before i finished it. my plan was to debadge the "cobalt ls" that's on the car now and just use that bowtie instead. the front will just be a solid black. thoughts?

looks cool, definatly differnt. according to your sig you have a red balt, it might look sweeet if you paint 'cobalt' red then put it on the bowtie so its black and red. just anotehr idea.

honestly the letters look off... make sure you get them perfectly where you want them... but like others have said... i think its more of a rear type thing... personally not my style but whatever you need to do to be different

agreed... good idea and would look good but i think it depends on placement of the letters and on the trunk
but all together good idea

thanks for all the opinions

i thought about painting the letters red as well but i figured they would blend into the car too much
