completely black bowties?

sqldbatx · 04-25-2018, 08:25 AM

Anyone know of bowties that don't have the chrome ring for the 6th gen? All I can find are the black inserts and the oem black & chrome.

I took my emblems off yesterday and sprayed them with glossy black from a clacker can. They look good but I'm afraid the paint will come off under a pressure washer.

Any thoughts?

lol its $149 because it is the entire emblem, not a sticker. Save 5% by using "lethal5" or "zeuszl1"

I used flat black Rustoleum spray paint on the rear emblem. Looks great. Just use masking tape around the emblem.

LOL. List price $148.45 Our Price : 149.95. Somehow that doesn't seem like a deal.

Why is "our price" higher?

If you're not happy with a rattle can paint job, this is what it costs to get it done with the professional stuff.

I had my 5th bowties done through that company, they looked awesome.

River City is great to deal with. Got mine done to match my 50th anniversary paint job.

Great guys to work with and the finished product is perfect.

It’s expensive because they are not plastic.

This piece is machined from solid billet aluminum.

You will not find any billet pieces in the $14 range.

Thanks for the info. I took the emblems by a collision shop after they said $50 on the phone. When I got there they said the paint would just come off because the plastic chrome. The rattle can looks OK but I was looking for something more professional like this.

Just talked to Phastek. Their emblems are so expensive because they are aluminum not plastic. Front is stuck on with 3M double side tape like the back.

Got my bowties and SS emblems through River City as well. Highly recommend.

buy a sheet of vinyl in the color you would like and wrap it. I've done it on all my cars. It is as simple as a $5 piece of vinyl, a hair dryer and an exacto knife.
