Going to black out my emblems. Please recommend paint code.
Hi guys,
I got a spare silver trunk and 92 spoiler that I am going to be painting soon and while I am prepping that thing, I really want to black out all of my emblems. I didn't want to drill holes in my trunk, so I just got another silver one from a pre 97 SC.
I am undecided if I want just plain black with clearcoat or metallic black with clearcoat for the emblems.
I worked on a black metallic Ferrari FF a little while ago, the owner said it was metallic black, but for the life of me I cannot find the paint code for it. II am leaning towards a metallic black and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions. Looking for something with a little metallic, nothing flashy.
Thank you all.

I think you should get the ones on Sewell Lexus (Black Pearl Emblems), it's pretty pricey but at least its OEM. I think the shaved look is much better though :\

I completely agree. I love the shaved look... SO clean. The black pearl emblems are pretty sick, but its like $350 for the full set.

I just ditched my nasty faded gold emblems for chrome ones. MUCH better looking haha. If I were going to paint them, personally, I would go for a satin black. I was actually thinking about painting my gold ones just to see how they would look.

Testors model paints has a black pearl spray paint or at least they did a few years back. I sprayed mine but didn't do a clear and they lasted about a year before the gold started showing on the front one. I ordered some chrome ones off eBay and I'm trying to decide if I want to try and paint them again

I was going to suggest the Black Pearl ones from Sewell as well, but ya thats a ridiculous price for just some emblems. Why dont you paint them Black Chrome or Black Pearl instead?
