Thanks for the compliments, I think it turned out well.
During removal, I ended up cracking on of the emblems so I went to Ford and bought 2 new ones. So I actually painted them off of the car.

MustangMan64: I am in Smyrna.

TAMPAGT07: It's funny that you say that, I have been throwing around the idea of painting the line inside the GT red to go with my suspension or gunmetal to match my wheels but not sure yet.

I think I'll do mine with matte black and tungsten grey lines. A black glossy paint might look good on black GT's. Cool, this maybe the cheapest mod yet for me.

Hey Tim....My GT Badges have red inside the lines. I believe that my rear badge has some red accents also.

To Tampa07gt- Bro, I am sorry, I am bordering on patent infrigement. Have youir lawyer contact mine, I'm sure you are due some royalties. LOL.

To wthalliii- LOL..Auctually there is also the $5 cromie tire valve caps, the $7 shortie Autozone 14" antenna, and yes the $2 Black Fuzzy Dice (the cheapest mod to date). And I have grown to love all of them equally.

I pulled mine off to do it.

First I wet sanded the chrome with 1000 grit sand paper. Bought my paint at O'Rielly's, Duplicolor spray primer and satin black.

Gave it 2 coats of primer and 3 light color coats.

I really like the satin black. It's not shiny but looks better than matte black IMO.

I have a new set I bought from Ford that I'm going to inline with grabber orange to match the car. Decided to get the extra set so I could take plenty of time with them.
