WTB:Chevy Hood Emblem

I'm in need of a chevy bow tie hood emblem. The only catch is, It has to be Orange in the center. Anyone have one they'd part with or know where I can buy one. I have a blue one, if anyone is interested in a trade. Would like to have a new one if possible. Thanks

I'm a little confused? I don't think orange was ever an option for a hood emblem.

You can easily paint your own though. Just strip off the blue paint from the back of the plastic center piece with Goof Off. Then paint the inside with orange, and when dry, paint the same side you just painted with metallic silver paint. This is how the factory emblem is so that light reflects off the back and shines

Thanks, I thought about painting it. But didn't know how to get the shine look. I've never seen an orange one either. Thought there might be a aftermarket type with different colors. Painting it will work, for me. Thanks
