We finally have some nice weather so I was able to wash and wax the Gooser last night. I have discovered that there are 3 or so scratches or should I say thin cracks in my front bowtie. Granted with time it will probably meet the same fat that others have met (water, fading etc) but I'd like to enjoy the new car feeling as much as I can lol

Dealer emailed me asking how the car was and if I'm completely satisfied. I'm going to ask them to replace the bowtie...is this a lot of work? Do the need to remove the grill or is it just a snap off, snap on job?


Thanks

You don't have to take off the grill. It just take a little patience and a little work. A strong fishing line or similar amterial has worked well for others, I used a putty knife. The main issue is that there are two centering posts which you'll have to work around.

If you're gonna replace it, you may as well paint it to match!
