Good luck!

 

we should call you the spraymeister...first fogs, now emblems! it'll look pretty good, can't wait to see pics.

 

that doesnt look half bad. thanks MPLEXUS. ima go to the hobby store right now. Ill post pics for ya after im dont SICKLEX.

 

Coolbeans, thanks!

 

No problem! Good luck with the process!

 

what color is ur car?

 

i did it yall. came out pretty damn nice too.. ill post pics later today, sorry. my car is silver.

 

im happy with how they came out. a bit harder to get the right finish compared to the fog lights i sprayed. i wouldnt recomend doing this unless you have some paint experience or a 2nd set of emblems to practice on.

3 light coats of tamiya hobby smoke spray.
3 coats of u-pol automotive clear coat.

 

looks good! what are you planning to spray next?

 

cool beans. lol. where the heck is that from? my fren says it all the time n wont tell me where he got it from.

so whats the verdict sicklex? u gonna take the dive?

do it, do it, do it (chant)

 

lol, i dunno. i was thinking possibly glow in the dark paint to look like illuminated door plates. jk. thinkin about smokin the tail lamps but the last thing i want is to get pulled over so im not sure if im gonna be doing that one. well see. maybe my rear bumper. my car rolled backwards and bumped a car which left license plate screw gouges on it. u can see in the last pic where i tried to touch it up using some silver that was obviously not the same color.
