Does anyone like the gold bowtie emblems on the Camaro?

David1987 · 10-28-2021, 11:21 PM

I have a 2016 Red Hot Camaro and just did my first mod. I swapped the gold emblems for the chrome and black emblems. Personally I hate the bowtie on the Camaro. I think they should’ve kept the Camaro logo like they did in the 80s up to 2002 but the black bowtie is tolerable on the bright red.

I have no use for the gold emblems so if anyone wants them let me know and I can gladly mail them out. Just send me a message.

Shame that GM couldn’t get the old school emblem on the front. Oh well I still love this generation of the Camaro and I really hope GM keeps the car around. If the mustang can survive them GM needs to start advertising or something. I’ve owned many Camaros and one mustang and the Camaro is the superior car.

Nope, Replaced them on all 3 of my vehicles with the black ones.

I cut out the insert of the bow tie and made a flow tie for the rear.

Sorry for the rotated image.

took it off the rear and plastidip'd the front...the gold is ugly as S.

I like this. How did you do this?

I guess I'm that guy. Like the gold on my hyper blue SS. The black does look way better on most colors though

I’m with you on this. The only color I really like the gold on is the blue.

I don't find the gold bow ties offensive, and, in fact, barely notice them. On those cars where they are changed out, I think the effort has minimal aesthetic impact.
I do think the (short-lived) design change with the bow tie moved to the front bumper cover was unattractive. But that was accompanied by other style changes I found unattractive (e.g. clear taillights), so at least they stuck to a theme.

I delete any chrome off all the cars I have had in the last ten years. I completely debadged my ZLE hood and rear, didn't opt for black ones. Wish I could delete the front flow tie as well but I masked it off and dipped it black instead. The car looked like the discount aisle of an autozone from 1998 with all the cheap silver. It's not even a real shaker hood, calm down with the emblems Chevy.

I tend to totally debadge my cars as much as I possibly can irrespective of a gold bow tie, etc etc
