    Thanks for the video. I didn't know the front bowtie could be removed from the front. I've seen a lot of videos removing them by the back which includes taking off the cowl, followed by removing the four clips and then prying the front grille just enough to squeeze your hand down through and push the bowtie clips out from the back.
    You just saved me an hour man, thank you!

    You can easily remove the gold part from the chrome surround and reattach it. I had an old bowtie from my '17 Colorado that I messed with. 4 blobs on the back drilled out and the yellow insert comes right out.

      I know this is while late but I recently (as in like 3 days ago I painted my bow tie on the airbag with a dupli color gm black paint paid 6 or 10 for the pen/brush/ clear kit and used the pen part for the edges or the emblem and the brush for the main part and let it dry then put the clear over it just if you do that(if you haven’t done this already) do be careful with the clear coat part, try not to brush a lot, I had a slight issue where the more I brushed(it wasn’t going onto the paint) and part of the gold came back when it fades because it inevitably will I’ll fix my mistake

    There is a LOT easier way, and NO masking required. Those gold inserts are glued in, heating them up and VERY CAREFULLY pry them out. Much easier to paint! Reversing the procedure will require heating them again to make the putty sticky. On today's vehicles, ANY emblem can be removed, WITHOUT damaging the finish, by using heat and SLOWLY pulling the emblem off. Worked like a charm on my '20 Blazer!

    just fyi... you dont have to remove the entire emblem..... with a hair dryer and a credit card/small screw driver, the gold comes off the chrome bowtie outline... it slowly peels up.... heat it up a bit and start on one end and peel it up and slowly peel it the rest of the way.. only held onto the chrome border with some 1/2" 3m tape. just replace the 3m adhesive when your bowtie is dry to stick it back on in place...

      Why would you do all that when you can pop it out in five seconds.. painters tape is cheaper than 3m double sided, and it's easier and faster this way

      I LOVE "vinyl". The music is MORE "textural", IMHO....

      Joshua Martinez if you want that glossy look, go ahead and clear coat it. Depends on the look you wanna go for 🤙🏼
