Since I got my Alpine stereo, I swapped out the red led gauges for blue to match. Then I decided to repaint my bowtie, this time on the outside because the old plastic killed the blue on the old one. Painted with dupli-color bahama blue, was going for the old electric blue of the Chevrolet bowtie like this:

The metallic is hard to capture with a camera phone, but just for reference, here's my old dull blue bowtie:

Let me know what you guys think!

I kind of want to use the same blue on some interior stuff, but im not sure how well it would flow with the interior colors, plus sometimes it looks really tacky.

I dont think you should touch the interior with any kind of blue...Just my opinion though rocky.

Wow what a coincidence!

I'm not sure if I like it or not, If everything was painted that color it might look really good. What makes you want to get rid of it?
