That looks good! What did you use to paint them and how did you get them to stick to the car?

Looks good. Plasti-dip? Repaint? Or actual black emblems?

..I've always wanted the Black Chrome ones from Lexurymods, xcept I'm not about to shell out $300 or whatever ridiculous price they are.

I got them on ebay of all places for like 15 bucks. They are no where as good as the ones from lexurymods but they are great for the price. They also have adhesive already on the back. Easy install

Why didn't you just plasticdip them for $5 bucks? Either way it looks good.

I never like to put anyones choice of mods down as it is there own car and not mine---but i do think the chrome emblems are much much nicer in this case---even the gold would o fbeen a better option-----just my opinion---thanks for sharing the pics

I've always wanted to confuse everyone and shave the emblems off the back and install a griffen.

Damn that's a good deal. I might just have to pick me up a set. I no longer have any emblems and plus I like the gloss black look better than the flat look of plasti dip.
