I bought some of the chevy emblems off ebay and painted them. I taped off the silver part and then primed, painted, and clearcoated with some cheap spray paint lol. It turned out pretty good.

10mm bolts for the front and for the back one you can use news paper and painter's tape and do it well it on the car still, that is what I did or you can use 3M double sided tape and remove it with a heat gun/blow-dryer.

how to: https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/show...ghlight=bowtie

I used the how-to and it was my first time spray painting anything and it came out grate!




I used Krylon Black for plastics and Duplicolor Clear Coat
