Those all look amazing. A couple questions.. Was removal of the Flowtie a major headache and/or any tips for us? How did you inlay the carbon fiber into the front bumper ZL “1” emblem? Did you just use regular gloss spray paint for the front emblem, flowtie and center caps? Any information is greatly appreciated. Again, nicely done my friend…

Thanks SHE'Z!
As infinitereality already mentioned you have to remove the plastic welds on the back side of the grill/flowtie.
I removed the radiator cover, and drilled the plastic welds on the flowtie off. Then I sanded it, used chrome primer, and my friend painted it mosaic black metallic at his car paint shop. Then I installed it back with some plastic repair epoxy.

All other questions are already answered by infinitereality.
