Hello all, brand new to this site. I recently purchased a 07 Suburban LTZ and absolutely love it. I need to make a couple fixes though. The first is that the gold color in the front gold bowtie emblem is bubbling and half of the gold color is gone. This seems to be pretty common problem.

I would like to either a) fix myself by painting or b) purchase a new one. The problem is that most of the bowties I find say "not for LTZ" models.

Any recommendations on where to find LTZ replacements in gold or chrome? Are these replaced the same way as the non-LTZ emblems, by just prying off from the adhesive using fishing line or a credit card after the two nuts are removed?

Thanks for the help!

 

Welcome to the forum.

The front gold bowtie is held on w/ two speed nuts and a small amount of adhesive. I'd paint it body color.

The rear is just glued on and when removed exposes a chrome bowtie.
