For the life of me I cannot find a black Chevy bowtie for the grille of my truck, do they even exist and does anyone know where i can purchase one at...if not the only other option would be to do the prep work and paint it myself...Any help would relly be greatful.thanks

2007 Chevy Silverado

 

I have seen a few but unsure if they were painted or not..........

 

I painted mine. Ive looked for one before but it was just as good to paint and even cheaper.

 

Yea ive seen them to which is what made me think you might be able to purchase them, and/or ask the person where or how they got theirs but everytime i see one its because the truck it driving in the opposite direction...bummer...

04blkchevy...did you sand yours, wet sand primer and paint with some rattle can or go about it a dif. way?

 

I havnt been able to find on and I have been looking as well. When the weather warms up im thinking of just painting mine myself.

 

I popped mine out like most others and just went at it with killz primer then used plastic coat based spray paints to give it a real strong look/finish. Then to really finish it off I just clear coated it to give it abit more shine and strength.

 

I used etching primer for my mirrors and emblem. Then blue trim paint and a glossy clear coat. I still need to clear it again but even stone chips aren't getting down to the plastic so its pretty durable.

 

Krylon makes a spray paint for plastics called Fusion. Very nice stuff for about $5 a can. Chemically bonds to plastic and is very durable.

 

Thanks for the Tip Guys. I just priced out new Bowe Tie at GM in St Albert, Alberta CA and they wanted $112 plus tax. So I took mine off and painted it with Krylon 18 Kt Gold and 3 coats of clear coat and it looks great..Thanks again!
