@craig85, that's why those emblems look so nice!
@RedBeard_83, I got a line on a grille, inserts and bowtie, but it's luck of the draw I think. I'm in the camp of, not spending $1000s on trim pieces (literally) and will be ok with a bit of "character".

In general, if laying down vinyl wrap, vinyl stickers or clear bra material, I first try to cut to exact size if possible. Scoring with a knife after install works well too as long as one has a light touch. The other option is knifeless tape. It works well, especially on curved surfaces or long areas where it would be tedious with a knife and straightedge.

Redbeard_83 I have exactly what your looking for, minus the bowtie. I’ll take some pictures of what I recently removed from my 87. Working till 3:30 so it will be sometime after that.

I used paint stripper, then bought some 3M tape for the stripe.

Craig--How did you get the Silverado 30 emblems off the Fender? I have a 76 I want off so I can airbrush them back to original color yellow. But it seems like I need to remove the fenders to get to them.

My truck had a repaint at some point. The PO broke the tabs off and used sheet metal screws to re-install them. They weren't straight, so I removed them until I paint it again.
