I used a spray paint. The emblem came out really glossy, but the actual trunk panel came out kinda glossy. I'm pretty happy with it, just wished I could have gotten it a little glossier. Once again, your ride looks sick!!

you can try and sand it down with some 2000 and then buff it out if theres a good amount of clear on it.
thanks for the compliments everybody.

wicked stang, you could also paint the very top of your bumper semi gloss black to accentuate your tail section, like I did.
Those are little details that go long ways...

My friend has a vinyl machine. I just printed out a sticker that has the lettering and instead of throwing away the part around the letters, i threw out the lettering itself. then i layed the vinyl in place and trimmed it around the light.
