Question about all black 6th gen camaro front/rear bowties

Are these just over priced cheap ABS plastic Camaro 6th gen front and rear bowties that everyone and their mother is selling online? I found these on the website NEXT-GEN SPEED

I want to go all black, but not compromise quality and longevity with really cheap ass parts.

This example appears to be the type that just sticks on using 3M tape. Provided the tape supplied is of the correct type and properly applied there’s not much than go wrong. I’ve never used them. When I did my 2018, I went with the type that completely replaces the entire assembly. They were harder to install, but the OEM ones worked flawlessly in the 4 years I had it.

These are factory replacements from GM.

I think these may well be painted OEM parts from the same (Korean, Mexican or Chinese) manufacturer.

Usage of double sided tape is normal as dmcmahan60 said, all badges on the car are attached with 3M tape and they never come off on their own. In fact, since this one's mounted to the front grille, air is always pushing against it, which makes detachment even less likely.

As to the seller, I have purchased several parts from n.e.x.t.-.g.e.n...s.p.e.e.d and never had a problem with quality, packaging or shipping.

Do you think it's the complete GM bowtie? And not an insert or overlay? Notice the outer shape is also painted black.

Sorry, I'm not familiar enough with the 2019+ front grille to advise, but this does look like a complete set of front/rear bowties, at least it would be for a 2018.
