Default Blacked out my GT badges and the Rear trunk emblem

This was my little mod over the holiday weekend. Blacked out my GT badges and the big round emblem on the trunk...Just another mod closer to getting it fully blacked out.

i was actually trying to think on how I could paint the GT red..would match the brake calipers..my other idea was..I might tape off the most of the badge on the trunk and the area that is chrome stock..I might hit it with a clear coat..so all the matte silver color is satin black and the chrome are would be gloss black. Still trying to think if I want to...gonna get satin black wheels..so the wheels, GT badges and trunk emblem all would match

Looks surprisingly good. How did you black out your faux gas cap?

looks good. I bought new GT badges at 14 bucks a pop. Im blacking them out soon. I have been busy with my grille. I like the way they turned out. I think im going to black mine and use satin clear.

I think that would look great. I really like the GT emblems blacked out, may have to do that myself. Did you use a rattle can or a real sprayer?
