So I've had my 430 for about 6 weeks now and I have been really happy with it, except for the horrible gold emblems on a black car with chrome.....great idea right

So I finally decided on a color to paint them cus I wasn't down with the $200 for new ones in the onyx. Well see how House of Kolor treats them Ill keep y'all updated with pics.

Sanded but not preped yet

 

Cool, can't wait for the final result. Please post DIY soon. I want to doi the same

 

Whats the plan Stan??????
You gonna blast some Kandy paint on these shiny bits?

 

Well, i got gold emblems on a onyx too. And i found a OEM set for 21$ all brand new with stickers on them. Found it on ebay, won the bid. wassuuuuuuppp haha lucky mee! Ill spot up pics this week too.
