Black Badge
So I decided to paint my rear badges black, put /// Emblem in the front grill (looks good in person), vinyl tape my lip spoiler ( trying to figure out which part to paint it black and of course...my black side trim, trunk trim, and side mirror.

Looks nice. I love the blacked out parts. I have had mine taped, untaped, and just seems nothing looks to good on the silver color. Silver is very hard to make look stelthy or cool. At present I have all tim blacked out and my extra emblems blacked out but not put on. I was so tired of Black cars and this one came avaliable I jumped on it even though it was not the Pladium one that I had ordered but I needed a car so I had to settle. Yours looks good makes me wished I had black again. Very clean, very well done car. Great job. Should tint the headlights would make it look good I think.
Have fun, looks great

You should powder coat your muffler tips if you really want an aggresive look. I was going to do this to my car but going full black i'm not fan off. However, I am contemplating the vinyl trims and powder coat the exhaust tips. Did you do the vinyl yourself? how hard was it to do this and where to get the material for the trims?

Love the blackout look and agree black tailpipes will look good on your car. If the tips were an easy bolt on/off I would consider getting an extra pair and have them powdercoated black as well!
