Picky but still...
Can't stand the gold on the bow-tie in the crossed flags. Any vendors here sell precut black or carbon flash vinyl overlays for these tiny gold annoyances?

Thanks guys. I guess market research has shown that more people are interested in shark teeth grille covers than covering gold on bow ties, hence no one cuts these. Guess I'm on my own. Plastidip is out of the question so I'll trace and use an exacto knife to cut my own.

Yep... carbon flash emblems have quite a bright gold bowtie!

Yes, the hideous and humongous gold bowties on my leased Traverses get plastidipped on day one. My SS Camaro got the full carbon fiber bowtie treatment on day 3 of ownership. Can't stand those disgusting gold (or as chevy prefers to spin it, maize) bowties.

No Sir. At the risk of pissing off a lot of people, I can't stand fake hydrocarbon even more. I'm only looking for the tiny vinyl covers for the small bow ties in my carbon flash emblems. Don't want paint brush strokes, so don't want to paint them by hand, so I'll just cut my own vinyls. (Sorry if you guys love hydrocarbon, just my opinion)
