I really like the stock red on white accents so going to leave those - did remember seeing an LED replacement and if a vendor sells those I'll probably go for those

Thanks for the write up. The badges look great and really make a difference.

I think I have a new project waiting in the wings...

why go through so much hassle?

If you arent looking for a glossy black and if matte black is what you want, then do the plastidip method!

It was the easiest and cheapest thing to do... patience is hardly required!
