I took a couple of pictures of the speaker grill prior to having it rechromed and for whatever reason I loaned my camera to a family member and they lost all my pictures on the disc. Can anyone send me a good picutre of the bowtie for th dash or if anyone knows the correct color names or where I might find them. My Email is Richmarlo40@Yahoo.com. No more lending me camera I guess. Thanks

Thanks for the picture. I see now that they messed up on the chroming as the center area is suppose to be a galvanized look. Not sure how to correct that. Anyone have a suggestion?

I made the same mistake so I simply painted the area using (if I remember correctly) an aluminum spray bomb. That gave me a pretty good match to what the factory did. Not exact, but close enough. Good luck
