bowtie question

[04silverL]

Im looking to go with black bowties front and rear on my 09 Tahoe. I ordered a set off ebay, All sales is who makes them. I went to install the front one yesterday and it doesnt seem to matche up like the stock one. Is there any other companies I can try? Who makes vinyl overlays for them?
And before anyone asks I did search on here, and did not find my answer

I purchased the same front/rear bowties. I wasn't too impressed with them. I did notice that the front bowtie is a little smaller, but I went ahead and gave it a try and it turned out ok:

Rear:

I also looked for similar bowties from another company...I didnt find anything.

It sounds like you have All Sales emblems without the outline. You mentioned earlier that they didn't match up. Were they a different size or did the holes not line up? Do you have any pictures?

I would just pull the front one and paint it yourself. Then throw it back on.

Also, are yopu sure you did not order the Silverado emblems, those are not the same size.

I painted mine! They look great and all it took was a can of semi flat krylon!

Its funny just the other day I found these emblems brushed aluminum, chrome, black etc and they looked high quality but now Im lost I cant remember where I saw them!

i've been looking for emblems too. my wife dislikes the gold on her '10 and i agree with her.
trying to find brushed aluminum or something that is just silver, not chrome or polished. trying to match the factory LT wheels.
i found the ones with the border though.
04silverL, are these what you had in mind?

guntruck, keep your eyes peeled for those brushed ones! i hope they arent stickers...
getting to the point that i might just get polished replacements, rought them up and paint them silver. that way i still have the factory bowties if i need them.

hmmm... her birthday is in 3 days!

You might want to try this website: http://www.empiremotorsports.com/cart/products.asp?CategoryID=48. I ordered two bowties from them -- one has been delivered and the other will be delivered shortly -- , and the front bowtie looks GREAT on my 2010 Tahoe! Can't wait for the rear one to get in. Two thumbs up!

Thanks for the info, I will still keep any eye out for the brushed ones but I need those black ones if they look nice.

Any pics of the front bowtie?

Here's a picture of the front replacement bowtie. No comments on my picture taking. I didn't bother with the position of the sun when I took the pictures a short while ago, and I'll be darned if the sun isn't making part of the front bowtie look Chevrolet gold.

Here's a picture of the rear replacement bowtie, which arrived 06-10-10:
