2020 all black bow tie

[Flatblack83]

I put the bowtie on just to see if I like it or not with the gloss black grill center. I'll get a pic tomorrow for you. I do think the ami piece is sleeker looking.  I'm not sure if this black bowtie would look better on my color matched grill or not.

Well this has been added to the listing since I read it last.....I bet he's getting a lot of questions like mine.  But still, he could have replied.  Thats the one thing that has held me back from buying....lack of contact.  But if he's sending you a new one........

If it has those defects in in, just from shipping, I’d be concerned about a good sized bug or rock hitting it!  AMI powder coated should be able to take more impact.

Those damages aren't from shipping, it came in a sealed bag inside a decent size thick box.  Damage was done before that. No big deal,  another ones on its way already. I'll have it this week. Here is how it looks. The z-71 emblems gotta go tho its out of place.

That looks so sick man!!!  Would my grille look better in gloss or matte black?  I'm definitely buying a black bow tie.  It really ties in with the look.

Honestly I have a color matched grill, I'm not sure if I like the gloss black instead...its preference I guess.

The Z71 emblem is a real ****** to remove.  You’ve got to pull the grill and it has clips holding it to a backing plate that are VERY tight.  I ended up breaking mine off.

It will look better tho!  And if you don't plan on using it again, then no harm.

Ebay, I took the original one off my grill and this one goes on the mount with double sided tape. It doesn't fit perfect but looks fine to me.

 

The grill center is gloss black from gm.  The rest of it is satin or matte( how it came).

One last question....did u buy the grille from GM after buying the truck?  I have enough points to buy this (but I didn't know if it was gloss or satin finish):

My trucks  a custom, i bought the high country headlights and grille on ebay.  The grille piece i bought on Facebook market place, that was just the center piece. I had to pull my color matched center off and put the black one on.  It was new from gm but I dont have a part #.

I took a t-rex aluminum insert and painted it satin black.  Instead of silver bars going across.
