Usually those gills need to be painted to look good I had one and it didn't look rite with my black paint looked more like a faded black plastic

Yeah that missing bowtie part would drive me nuts.. Doesnt look bad though. Looks like that bowtie could use some easyoff foil removal treatment and a new coat of paint..

actually i was looking at that and poked at it and the bowtie fell off. i just glued it back together quick. yeah it looks good from a distance but its stupid as heck if your looking right down on the emblem. i don't know why they thought that would work. its hard to see it in the picture before you buy it but now looking at it harder you can tell its not there in the picture. i guess it was a good prototype to go on before i paint my grill because there is no going back then. its going to look even better once the grill is painted to match like was first suggested to me. haha you live and learn!
