Kinda went for the old school bowtie look, i think it came out pretty well. Plus it matches my red inserts

 

That's very nice.

Good job.

 

Is that a monte carlo?

 

thanks man, If you look back on the 90's bowties, there just outlined blue or red for the ss's. but thats where i got the idea, so i cant take all the cred.

no its a 08 cobalt ss

 

Haha I was sayin the SSs looked like that

Looks good though

 

What would you think about a purple trim with a silver tie for a girl? Purple is my fave color but I won't be able to get my car a paint job for a long time... lmao. A purple tie would look retarded.... so Any ideas? If it's possible. haha

 

Id paint your "SS" red too

White with purple trims?

 

yea thats next, but it took all friday night so when i get around to it. haha

yea id say defitaly white with purple trim if anything, cuz the white will match your car, as though looking like its just a purple badge. hence the black and red combo with my black car. but in the end its what you like so silvers fine too. the point is, for the bright color to be the accent color, so its not so "in your face"

 

Thats gonna be sickkk! Paint the sides too if you still have em. Dont forget pics

 

Amazing. Black and Red. Favorite combination in colors, especially on a black balt.

 

looks good

 

looks nice man, i'm actually in the process of a silver/blue theme kinda. i have a blurple car but i have the CW billet upper and lower front grills, silver rear grills and silver plate frame. i'm doin my front bowtie silve center and probably the laser metallic blue for the trim

 

Im intrigued in this "blurple" car you speak of.

 

Is it me or do I see over spray?

 

I sense a tad of overspray. But it still looks good.

 

Indeed

 

See, Blurple is cool too ^_^ Anywho. See, as long as it's ANYTHING but the gold. And my rear bowtie looks like someone smashed it. the top of it is all cracked inside, so I cant feel any creases. So someone must have been pissed at me and messed it up...... So painting it would be best i think.

it wasn't like that two weeks ago..... hah.

 

looks good have not seen black with red yet just the very popular black and chrome!

Is that garnit/candy black? My black colablt just plain black bah

did you paint well it was on the car like my noob ass with overkill newspaper lol?

 

i was thinking about doing the same thing but black outline and red bowtie

 

It would have been 2 minutes to take off the front one and maybe 20 mins for the back one, you prolly spent an -/+ hour to mask it.

One question how much overspray did the other car's get?

 

the front bowtie was taken off.

I have dont have a heatgun and do not know how to remove and put it back on. For the backbowtie

 

MAN CRYPTIC!!!! Every time i see those pic's, it makes me laugh.

 

Um...ok but you masked the whole front of the car!!!!

Also to remove any badge all that is needed is
1. Dental Floss
2. Elbow Grease
3. Goo B Gone

Then remove all sticky residue, add 3M double face tape, stick badge back onto the car AND...... WHAMO!!

If you want to ensure you put it in the same position, simply outline the badge b4 taking it off with ... masking tape

 

Blow dryer works just as good as a heat gun...

 

20 mins to take off the back emblem....don't forget cleanup -- removing the messed up adhesive on the back of the emblem -- and new tape and reinstalling it AFTER you polish out any scratches you left in the paint -- and the prep to make sure there isn't any Goo-Gone left to prevent the new tape from adhering.

It takes MAYBE 5 minutes to put the newspaper on with a little extra time getting the tape around the emblem perfectly (which is time you would spend on the prepping the emblem off the car for paint). And then a WHOLE minute removing the newspaper after the paint dries. You "glued-on emblem removers" give me a good laugh
