Blacking out the emblems
Guys -
id like to matte-black out the emblems on my car but I can’t find a whole lot of choices other than a couple on eBay.
Anyone had success with good quality blacked out emblems? Thank you in advance.

Would you consider plastidip? I did that on mine and it's still the OEM emblems but it looks great and the best part is, if I get tired of it I can just pull it off without too much hassle

I don't understand blacking everything out so it's unreadable. It must be personal taste. I know it's not shame in owning a MB, or an AMG or a GT.
When everything is blacked out (I believe in Asia it's called "murdered"), it becomes more difficult -- for me at least -- to see the features of the car.
But if you want a totally blacked out car that is pretty much just a black hole in the air, you need to have it painted vantablack, like this BMW:

So black, the paint absorbs all light falling on it. So black, you can't make out any features, just the outline. It looks two dimensional from all angles.
