Anyone have any pics of what's under the rear bowtie. I know there are 2 small holes and I think I remember seeing a small circular indention but i can't really recall. I am trying to decide what is the cheapest route:

1) have body shop fill holes and repaint
2) buy Yukon rear molding without holes and have painted...

I think that the rear Yukon molding is like $80 give or take. Therefor I am trying to get pics to show body shop of what it would entail to shave it. If it's $50 then it's better to shave vs pay $80 for new.

Any thoughts / pictures of what's underneath?????

Thanks for your help everyone!!!!

I have the Yukon Applique painted to match. Don't waste your time trying to use the Tahoe one because it won't work.
Trust..... I know, I tried everywhere.

SW CT,
I have the Tahoe one..shaved by my body guy..soo it will work, just need to find a competant shop. There are actually 3 holes...2 for mounting and 1 for alignment when put on at the factory, along with a machining/mold mark that is roughly the size of a half-dollar...I know that when mine was filled they used urethane to keep the materials the same.
