I really liked the 1913 bowtie and the 1973 3/4 ton badging. I decided to just customize them into one decal and had it printed for trial.

I am going to send it off sometime in the future and have it cut into 3d plastic.

I've since removed the pinstripe because I didn't like the color clash I saw. I'm going to throw a black stripe in their place and see how she looks. b6f3e520d2c04aaa30029435f5e01132.jpg

I don't always venture out into the sub-freezing darkness, but when I do, it is hunting season, and I carry a Remington. Stay hungry my friends.

I like the design, but it just doesn't seem to flow on the fender. Maybe on the door where it says TAHOE, or maybe the rear hatch?

I like it. You`re going to have a lot of people asking if your truck was a special option that nobody ever heard of. But i also agree with tony, I may look better on the door where the original tahoe emblem was.

I may move them once I get the rockers raptor lined.

I would’ve put the emblems at the places GM put you model letters!! Like on a “Z71”!!!!
On a Z71 (I have a 2004 Z71) the badging is on the pillar behind the rear passenger doors and on the lower left area just above the rear bumper on the rear hatch door!!!

I think that would look really
SHARP!!!!!!!

I went to go see a car show today and the staff asked me if I was putting my 2004 Chevy Tahoe Z71 in the show!!!!! I told the guy I was HONORED that he asked me!!!!
He said “You’re truck looks pretty damn good for its year and you can tell you take care of it REALLY WELL!!!” I told him I’ve only owned it 5 months and it looks better NOW than when I bought it!!!

All that honor.....

Just after completing PHASE 1 of my modifications on my Z71!!!!!!

My truck is completely decked out in:
#1 ALL LED lights inside and out
#2 Bowtie American Flag Vinyl
overlay
#3 Hand painted blue bowtie in
center caps
#4 Hand painted blue Bowtie with
gold leaf trim on steering wheel

Now thinking of what to do for Phase 2.......

ANY SUGGESTIONS FOLKS???!!!!
