Im looking to debadge my TL and possibly paint the rear logo. If any one has any pics of work they did to their badges it would be helpful. Thanks

 

 

^^^^
thats sick

 

i took mine off and the car does look better without them

 

 

I've experimented some with the black chroming. I have two rear A's black chromed but haven't put either one on my car yet. I plan on putting the darker of the two on my car and then selling the other one.

Here are pics that I took last year of them in different lighting and holding them up to my car. The angle and intensity of light changes their look.

Pic taken outside:


Pic of lighter one against car (want to sell this one):


Pic of darker one against car (going to put this one on when I remember to):


The color depth of the lighter one is just a tad darker then the set SteveP66 (RIP) bought from me. They looked sweet on ssm.

 

not to go off topic but how did u do the black chrome? spray paint or is it actual chrome^^

 

It's actual color added to the chrome. I had it done at www.atlaschrome.com If you check out the huge grill thread that darksom1 started last year there are more details/pics there.

 

I've thought of replacing the oem rear badge with a red one, what do you guys think, also keep in mind i have a 08 WDP TL-S

That won't fit.

 

Here's mine

 

I was afraid of that so I was gonna tinker with it

 

Werd red A in the rear sounds sick, let me know if you need help

 

how do you think a black rear logo would look on a silver TL. I was thinking along the lines of flat back for the badge. Any thoughts?

 

Definatley bro !

 

Here's mine now

 

Shaved TL's FTW

Its just soo... simplistic, and elegant.

 

I like that white emblem... hmmm...

 

i think i may shave this summer...

 

what do I need to remove the emblems?

 

Dental Floss, Goo Gone and some polish/wax.

hairdryer/heatgun + fishingline/dental floss

 

I found that dental floss was snapping on me because the glue was so hot after heating it up. I went and got some fishing line (the thinest I could find) and it worked great. Then used all the other products mentioned and it looks great. Can't notice where the letters were and it makes the car that much cleaner
