Hey guys anyone pulled off and painted their "GT" badges? I'm blacking out my lights and want to paint my emblems too. I can't find black ones to buy online. What kind of paint would you use? Thanks!

i did mine in black but didn't take the emblems off.. just taped off the car very carefully. saved me a lot of work and it's actually pretty easy. the tape slides right in between the letters and the car if you look closely...

I like it. I think I'll do it. Has anyone out there high lighted the lines in the GT with the paint of their car? I think that might look pretty cool also. 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.
