Did a little chrome blacking out today
So I blacked out everything today with Plastidip then I wasn't digging it so I put some chrome back in it. This is what I ended up with. I love how the front looks. Not too sure about the rear though... feedback please..
Front: Blacked out grille surround. License plate frame blacked out with chrome "Lexus"
Rear: "Lexus" and "IS350" blacked out. License plate frame blacked out with chrome "Lexus"

Not a fan of the rear due to the cars color vs your plasti-dip

Will black out the L again tomorrow. I have to redo the "Lexus" emblem on the left anyways because I peeled a bit off of the "S" by accident.
