I want to do the emblems and finisher strip in satin black, anyone know a good place to get some on the cheep?

Thanks!!!

 

step 1: pull off old emblems.
step 2: clean trunk, making sure no sticky residue is left behind.
step 3: spray paint emblems whatever color you would like.
step 4: re-apply 3M tape to emblems
step 5: stick emblems to trunk.

 

Dude all you need is a can of plasti dip and you don't even have to remove the emblems, just peel the excess paint off the car.

 

^ lol

 

exactly what im gonna do with my wdp....just waiting for a weekend of good weather.

 

I took the A off the back of my car, used a can of black spray paint I had with some clear and put it back on my car. I've gotten more compliments on that than I have on any other mod...go figure lol

 

Yeah, just remove your own and do it.
Even Heeltoe raping on price.

 

step 1- no problem
step 2- takes 200 aggravating forevers
step 3- no problem
step 4- takes 200 aggravating forevers
step 5- no problem.

steps 2 and 4 are the reason I was looking for a brand new one. it takes forever to dick with emblems.

are there little holes behind the acura emblem?

 

You've probably spent 10-fold the time dicking around with the thread then it would to have just knocked out the emblem job on your own, you know.

 

it really isnt that hard to wipe away the sticky adhesive....
Deathmetal is right, you could have already been done with your little project!

 

+1

 

i used plasti dip on my emblems last weekend...they came out really good.. It's crazy how easy that stuff is to use...just spray on and peel of. i'm thinking about doing my grill with it.

 

Done!

I likey plasti-dip. Much more retard-proof than normal paint.

 

but whats wrong with your exhaust tips?
and why is your car inside the house?

 

That is just a baller tile garage floor. Nice!

But yeah what is up with your exhaust? Looks like it came off a old civic.

 

it is fucking baller. when i grow up, I want that.

 

Why not just buy from here? I am. They aren't painted.

^something about 100 dollars for plastic emblems doesnt sit well with me

 

$189 for all of them...

 

^ $189 thats even worse

 

I'll gladly pay that for real unpainted emblems. Honda had blk nchrome emblems for the s2k. I bough them then too. Look great. have you priced buying new emblems to paint?

 

 

Did you paint over your reverse lights??

 

that's crazy talk

 

Usually not a fan of anything from silver to grey (black, white, and red only at my house), But your whip looks hot! It's like a big jelly bean, I just wanna eat it up!

 

I guess it is if you cant afford them. Btw they arent plastic.

 

Oh but they are. And that's kind of douche-y to say man, we can all afford them, we're just not dumb enough to spend $200 on $1 worth of plastic.

Marco- Thx Man! I'm painting the rims gunmetal tomorrow, will post up pics when finished

The exhaust is chopped from my custom exhaust that I sold, I have another exhaust system sitting in my garage that I'll be installing in a week or two. I hate the no-tips thing too, don't worry.

U guys think go back to tinted lights or keep the custom ones? I think with the all black and gray thing that the tinted ones might look better...

 

yep. got a white LED strip to replace them. that picture isn't the best, but it looks much cleaner now.

 

speak for u. it wasnt doche to say. Not everyone can afford to pay 200 for plastic. Or rims so they just do what you do. idk if you can/can't afford rims but its an alternative i guess.

Don't use dosche again. Makes you sound 12yo...lol.

 

Plasti-dip FTW... I used it on my rear emblem

 

I told you man post some pics bro.........I don't know why there's like 2 post laughing at the comment I posted regarding plasti-dip.

 

I know, that has to be one of the easiest and cheapest mod .

 

Dude that looks sweet imho i wouldnt put film on the taillights, just paint the chrome part black. It'll def. match with the emblem and really set it off nicely.

 

Fuck anyone that dosent like plasti-dip.

 

I had 19" Privat Netz's, I sold them to BYZRYCE, I liked the stock ride quality too much. I have a 911 twin turbo as my fun car so not too much of an issue affording rims haha

(PS you misspelled "douche" twice, differently each time )

jurena- thx man, I just wanted to avoid the full day project of tearing those damn lights open again.

 

Pics or ban

The emblems look great! I haven't personally used the plastic dip before but I've heard good things. Btw your car looks dope. I love AM.

 

Does Plastic dip just make them black or what?

 

Nice exhaust. Any sound clips?

 

haha shut it! Going to put the exhaust back (with tips) on when I get back in town.

 

pics of 911 or BAN!
