Just wondering - why are you so against plasti dip? Personally, I think it looks better than all of DIY (not professional) painted emblems I've seen. The fact that it's reversible is a big plus, too. Not really a fan of the "cheap-way-out" mods like CF vinyl wrapping either, but I think Plasti Dip is a good alternative for some people - used minimally with taste, of course.

If you look closely, it's the same people who's posting in that thread, that's why it reached 12 pages. check Bigrahizzl for example. just saying.
