Murdered out my emblems!
Hey gang,
Today I got bored and wanted to ake that fugly *** chrome off the front and rear off my car...
I went ahead and murdered out the emblems on the car!
I'm loving the matte look on them instead of the chrome front and rear, and the off-grey of the 350z emblem...
Got all the emblems off with a hair dryer and some braided fishing line... The adhesive under them was a real b**** though...
Sorry aboout the garage iphone pics

I like it...
IMO it looks better than two flashy *** chrome pieces, when nothing else on the car is chrome...
sorry you don't like it... Enjoy your chrome I guess?

Chrome emblems arent flashy, there stock and barely noticeable. 99% of cars have chrome emblem. Now what you did with the whole black is "flashy", they stick out way too much especially on a silver car. I personally wouldnt do this unless it was on a black car, even still it wont have that matte finish. Overall they look good tho, i just hope you did this to compliment your wheels or something? this on a stock car wouldnt look good imo.

If you're going to black out anything paint the door handles black.
