Thanks! Yeah I know last summer I bought an overlay for the steering wheel, it makes it look like the old blue chevy emblem (which I was never fond of) but it matches the car color. It seems pretty light in this pic, but it's a lot darker in person.

 

@ xxtheshockerxx, do you have a pic of that? im curious, sounds like it would look pretty bad ***.

 

I screwed up and had already painted the outside of my bowtie before I found the write up on popping out the center clear plastic piece. It looks OK, but I haven't tested to see how long it is going to hold up against the elements. I used many coats of clear coat though hoping that will help.

 

Looking for suggestions from anyone on the cheapest quickest way to fix this. My trunk bowtie has what looks to be water in it and it looks like ****e. Its looking like the vinyl overlay would be the first thing to try. Is there a colour that would match the monte carlo ss (chrome) and where is the best place to order from. I'm in Canada. Thx in advance.

 

just use the vinyl over lay loike i did on the black monte on page 2. i think it looks fine and its easy to take off if ya dont like it

 

this is the company, and product i went with. im sure you could just have a vinyl company cut something for you if you didnt want to go this route.

Thx for the info guys, not sure yet which option I'll do. How does water get in the decal in the first place, is this common ? I do wash the car alot.

 

X2 for these, I have one on the back of mine, and overlays from them as well for the rest, It's great because of the domed vinyl they use, simply replaces your gold plastic piece, or for like SS emblems just lays on over.

They have a huge selection of colors, and I've always had a great time dealing with them.
