Default Replace bowtie with SS emblem

I replaced my bowtie with an SS emblem today and love it. If you would like to do this, just get a 5 1/4 x 1 1/2 SS emblem off ebay. Remove the bowtie by taking some fishing line and running back and forth behind emblem. Use flat screwdriver and sand paper to smooth out plastic before putting the ss emblem on. There is a little plastic notch just to the right of the center of bowtie that i cut off with a knife to make the whole thing smooth to stick the ss emblem on. Take a look and let me know what you think.

I like it. GM should have done that for all the 06 & 07 SS Monte's.

Have you ever considered a billet grill?

I don't think the billet grills look good on the Montes. They're played.

What and give up the free advertisement??? Never happen, but I agree it does look sharp! And the fit seems almost like GM had planned on people doing just that.
