My car is a red hot with the black rally strips so it looks sooooo much better with the black bow ties.

I also think yours looks really nice with the blacked out bow ties. You did a great job with that. I'm not sure I could pull that off, which is why I went the route I did.

Are you happy with the quality of the dealer's replacement?

Looks awesome. Could never wrap my head around why people are paying $125 for these when you can do it yourself for $5 and 30 mins work.

If I could o would of done what you did, I just did it because it was the cheaper route and I've done it to my previous cars before too so I already knew the process, thanks tho!

It's the nicest dealer plate out here and since my buddy works for them I use it lol it's made from aluminum so they actually look decent than the paper plastic ons it came with, plus the same owner owns a a GMC dealer as well lol

Do you have an amazon link or something to the material / spray you used? I'm not familiar with the product.

I am going to grab some Testors Model paint this weekend and paint mine.

I'm looking for pre-cut overlays of the bowtie but can't find any :(

All I see is DIY vinyl where you would have to cut it out.

I just went to a wrap shop and they used a little piece of scrap vinyl and took them 5 minutes to cut out and heat it. They didn't even charge me to do it.
