This looks absolutely awesome! Was it really that easy peeling around the emblems? I have Blizzard Pearl, so these pictures provide a perfect preview.

yap, very easy. Here's what i did.
Clean/degrease your emblem first…..very important for adhesion.
Do a light spray that leaves dots on the chrome you're spraying, Wait 10 minutes before 2nd coat,
This coat should cover the entire chrome piece. Wait 15 minutes before 3rd coat.
Before you spray, look at the "chrome emblem" or whatever from all angles, to see if you missed any part of the chrome. Then spray another and get it in there but do not overspray. Wait another 15 min for 4th coat (optional). I have used only 3 coats on mine. Grab some beer, wait for 1 hour. Use your finger nail to peel off, I've use tooth /dental pick for inside letters and numbers. Have plenty of patience, if encounter hard to peel places/corners, use exacto knife or some sort. Good luck…
