Hey Jewels, I would use red paint for the bowtie. I've attached a close-up of mine. It's now starting to fade in one corner
I must say, you are
very lucky to have found grille shells and headlight bezels that look that good. It seems most oxidize badly. You need to post some good sunset pics of that beast, red vehicles always look good with a sunset in the background. :p
Thanks for your response, and here's the grille bowtie
