Default Blacked Out Pony?

Has anyone painted the pony on their grille black? I'm curious to see pics if anyone has... and did you remove the pony itself to paint it?

Thank You~!!!

Where have you been? Do this, take some electrical tape, in black og course and carefully and neatly place it over the horse to give the optical illusion of it in black. It will help or I believe tombstang has done it.

It looks good when the other lights are also blacked out.
