is there a way to take just the gold part off are will i have to unbalt it to paint it?

 

Remove the 2 bolts from the back of the chev symbol and it will come right off. It takes 2 minutes. I believe the gold logo is glued to the silver part though, So I wouldnt recommend trying to separate the 2.

 

ok so you cant just pop it off like the back?

 

No its glued

 

its 2 bolts on the back of the grill and the emblem pops right off. if you want to paint it and keep the chrome around the bowtie just tape it off and paint. its easy

 

Painters tape and an exacto knife.

 

wrong it comes off just not as easy as the rear thanks anyway

 

dont leave the chrome. blacked out ss's are the best haha

 

i would if i was going black but im going matalic blue so the chrome will look nice around it

 

what else will be blue on it? when i get back up to wa we should meet up

 

just the stuff under the hood............thats cool

 

blue should look interesting lmao

 

i havent seen anyone with yet if i dont like it ill go black

 

so are you still stock?

 

no i have clear image automotive bosst piping cai and 3in catback with trifecta switchable tune to 22-24psi

 

nice i need to race a modded tc

 

ok just let me know when

 

dumb asses saying its glued its just 3m double sided take a little heat and some fishing line does the trick which im sure you figured out already god i love this site so much

 

yes i figured it out with my whale dick of a spoiler lol

 

the way that I separated the two parts of the emblem was I took it and placed it so the gold part was facing like a tissue box, then I took my gf's hair dryer and put that bitch on high and pointed it right at the back of the emblem, let it heat up for a few mins. Then took a box knife, or something thin and sharp and just popped it out. Too easy

 

unbolt it then paint the whole thing black

 

You should be able to separate the jewel from the housing with a little persuasion and sand the color off the back with very fine grit sand paper. Then paint the back whichever color you'd like- it will look factory from the front. Use an adhesive tape, not liquid glue when reapplying the jewel to the housing. You could make a sweet black bowtie this way

Lap the back of the jewel on a mirror with sandpaper over it for the best result.
