Gold Bow Tie Emblems

Recommended Posts

recently I purchased a aftermarket aluminum bow tie for the front grill on

my 05 silverado from the car guys in calgary,AB. Reason being the GM plastic one was cracked and they wanted $142.00

 

It came in a street scene package

I wanted gold color so they painted a chrome one gold and sold it to me for $91.00

needless to say first car wash the gold is peeling right off the chrome underneath is quite visible.

they will not take it back saying I dropped it and that the instructions say to laquer it

what instructions? and how would laquer stop it from peeling?

so I got a hold of the manufacturer they told me they don't make a gold one

and don't sell to the car guys

 

I have been HAD!!!! big time

and I don't want anyone else to have the same problem

so watch out when they say gold color on aluminum :rollin:

I now get to remove the rest of the gold paint and Im stuck with a chrome one

i might still have my OE gold one from my truck.. i bought a billet aluminum one and put it on. I believe the OE one is still in good shape if your interested.... I would let it go for fairly cheap compared to what you were paying there.... lol. Shipping would be the most $$ part... lemme know if your interested, ill get some pics if so

 

EDIT- im almost positive the 05 and 06 are the same ... i know my 03 i had was the same design as my 06 front end, so it should work out no prob.
