Why not just get a black chrome overlay. It would be cleaner, simpler, and when you get board with it you can always just change it with a different one. Oh and they are way cheep to get too.

I did my front and back emblems and was able to wipe off the nightshade off the chrome surrounding of the oval after it was all dry. I don't think it will adhere right considering it is for plastic. I would suggest getting some Duplicolor Shadow for like $15

I haven't tried this stuff yet since it is a little expensive but I wanted to match the badging on my truck to the black chrome wheels on my FX2.
