Default Blacked out my Emblems

Today I had some free time and decided to black out the emblems on my Silverstone Z. It's an 04.5 Touring

Shout out to Pengu for giving me the idea/helping me through PM!

I used black Plasti-Dip and painters tape, and taped off the areas around the emblems... After the first spray I got nervous like i just spray painted my car black but this stuff is truly amazing.

Here are the pics, one shows the tools I used to get in-between the numbers and the hamburger emblems.

Let me know what you think, I think it came out well for a DIY, only took about 2 hours with drying and peeling...

Good job, man!

However, do we really need another plasti-dip thread?

Is it time for an *official* plasti-dip thread? I can't say anything. I started one of my own last week.

The investment/return ratio is great. Looks good MTB.

Haha I agree about another thread, but I kinda just wanted people to see how truly easy it is and not to be scared like I was because it comes out so well...

Also dont mind how dirty it is, gonna wash it after work tomorrow!
