hi, i would like to replace my gold bowtie with black bowtie.....would my local gm dealer have one?

and how hard would this be to swap ?

thanks

 

very easy to swap just paint it thats all i did to mine except white

 

any chevy dealer would have one, i would try and got one from someone here or ebay. and its really eeasy to take off.

 

Dealer or Ebay

 

***************************/index.php?m...f4ba8de03da29f lots of pre made custem bowtiws for our car! and for $25 they paint it anyway you like!! But if you want something plane like black bowtie then just paint it your self it very easy. allot easier then I tout it would be and came out grate and I did not know what I was doing I just used a how-to on the site.

here the guide I used https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/show...ghlight=bowtie read it you see how easy it really is!!! I have no painting experience before hand and was amazed the way it came out!!!





Back bowtie as well:


p.s Only cost $20 in supplys ( would been cheaper if I did not have buy a ratchet set)
the cost should be half that if you got the tools, I had no tools so yea had to invest.

 

I painted mine. Took 15 minutes to do both.

 

you did not wait 10mins between layers? took me like 3hrs I did it by layers thou and did like 8 layers of black and like 10 layers of clear . The back has like 12-15 layers of black lol fucked up on it and 10 layers of clear.

Just Paint It Your Self!

 

i did

i need to take day pic......those suck

 

should of left the chrome.

 

I painted mine black, but I did the whole thing...should have left the chrome...I'll probably just pick up another badge and try it again.

I like how yours turned out liljone.

 

thx..it more work/time with the chrome trimming but worth it.

 

Mine, I wet sanded it all so it's a lot smoother.

 

looks really good and shinny


More bowtie pics:

 

i did leave chrome not painted but did not like it i will get better pic later on

 

Looks good, but I still think the chrome trim un-painted looks better, just my opinion though.

 

thanks...i cant believe that it took 16 month to do this lol ..... looks 10000% better even my dad says it which dosent happen often

 

how do you but it back on the trunk?

 

take the bowtie off. scruff it up with sand paper tape off the silver if you wanna keep it and spray paint it.
no primer needed

looks good imo

i painted mine black and looks 100% legit


3m tape.

 

Hey does anybody know if the 2010 Camaro chevy emblems would fit on the front of a cobalt??
