What Should I Put Up Front?

Hey all... quick question.

I've tried numerous things up front on my car... stock bowtie... painted black... decepticon emblem... black bowtie with decepticon emblem from 24designs.

I'm just not happy with the way anything looks up there. I've been running with nothing at all for the past month or so... and the holes bother me.

Suggestions? Pics of what you are running up front on yours?

Thanks!

get a red chevy bowtie, just the outline like the ones they use on the hoods and bumpers in nascar. i think it'll give it a sportier look, plus that emblem is pretty sweet, much better than the gold sunburst emblem.

Looks very clean. You definately have to do a good job; though, cause I've seen that done before and it didn't look nearly as good...

Just color match it to the car. It provides the cleanest look yet. The "SS" badge idea is ok but the grill is shaped wrong and it just doesn't look right. If the grill were shaped for it then it would look great.

You could do what I did .. I had a 24designs autobot one on but it didn't look right so I decided to paint my grill and I think it looks alright now. I don't mind it and it looks good.
