If they make a black out option for the flow tie, that would pretty much solve the aesthetic issue. If not, I'm sure the aftermarket is already on it, or it's a very simple DIY.

I imagine either a touch up paint pen if you want to keep it, or bondo if you want to get rid of the logo altogether

I'm sure you can just wrap the center black section to match the paint, and find some kind of innovative mounting idea to mount the bowtie back into the grill, but still you shouldn't have to do this on your own.

I would think the Bowtie emblem that goes on the Z28 grill for the 5th gen with bolt right on there.. easy for aftermarket companies to make a Snap-On cover paint to match or carbon fiber .with 3M tape to go over to middle section..

I didn't think Chevy could do any worse on the Camaro than the Catfish..
I was Wrong!

lol I dunno - I would like to get my hands on a fourth gen. Hard to find them with low miles but a few are for sale. Maybe the model before those refreshed headlights were added.

I love the fourth gens, ahead of its time in power and styling IMO

I thought the same at one point, until I realized you couldn't get the LS in the earlier model, it was still an LT350 at that point.

But once the 5th gen came out, I was good.

Maybe we need a poll of our members to see where everyones opinions fall on this 2019 design?

I’ve always preferred the 4th gen Trans-Am over the Camaro.

+1. Always flowed better IMO. But I'm a sucker for the 97 SLP 30th anniversary Camaro.
