Black bowtie?
I just ordered a black hunter brush guard and im excited to see how it looks. I was thinking if i should also paint the bowtie black to match. Ive looked around for a champagne colored blazer with a black bowtie and i cant find one. Think black would look good? Open to any other color suggestions too.

A Black bowtie looks good on any color Blazer. Don't worry. :icon_wink:
|
paint it black ftw
|
I color matched mine (dark cherry) but considering your's is champagne it wouldnt look much different than stock lol. so def go with black. it will really set off the brush guard!
|
I plan to pick up that Krylon for plastics. I think people use like a gloss black to do theirs correct me if im wrong. If i painted it when should it be alright to put back on the truck? Like a couple hours?

Whatcha think?

I got a black bowtie yet to be installed (the mounting holes aren't the same), but no refund... debating to drill new holes or look for sure duper extra sticky glue/tape

Ok i was just making sure it wouldnt look outa place. Thanks for the pic. Did you do those corners yourself?
|
Yeah I did the corners myself wht some VHT Nightshades.
Here's a pic taken today... http://i986.photobucket.com/albums/a...c/DSC00115.jpg |
You may want to go the route of clear corners as well:

Got my guard today and decided to sand and paint the tow hooks along with the bowtie. Still waiting for the tow hooks to dry but here is the result
Id love to do clear corners too but did you have to get an amber bulb or something for them to still light up orange? http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/3023/grillef.jpg |
you could also tint you orange corners to match your bow-tie and brush guard
|
not too crazy about the black corners. Too much black for me. Ive always liked the clear corners though.
|
What kind/how much was the brushguard? I'm thinking about getting one! Looks good!

I just realized you have the factory fogs... that makes finding clear corners a little more difficult. On LMC... the P/N for the parklights with the fog light are 150 bucks 29-8506 on ebay... I found these... the fact I found a kit with fog lights so quickly actually surprises me, they're super rare and not a bad price. http://cgi.ebay.ca/2000-2004-S10-Bla...item3a55e7160a |
Its a hunterbrush guard. Do a search for Brush guard discount on the forums and they give you a link. If you buy it on ebay and mention blazerforum they end up giving you a 5% discount. Ended up bring about 230ish shipped. Im happy with it. Doesnt wiggle at all but i dont think the bolt were stainless steel like they said they were.
