well guys, I finally decided to start doing the modifications on my truck so I'll be putting up some pics along the way I guess. Here are the pics from painting my emblems and I need to order the inlays from patriotdecals.com

 

looks nicee

flat black?

and what color inlays are you getting?

 

And yes I know my truck is filthy. I just got the baby a week ago and started taking it apart. I'm getting my new parts (hood, front and back bumpers ) painted and then I'm going to detail the beast... Finally there will be a truck with blackedout bumpers!

 

It's semi-flat with 5 or 6 clear coats... I think that I'm going to get charcoal inlays... I'm going to put a strip down the side of the truck and do the new decals in charcoal and black.

 

DId you do anything to prep the emblems before painting or did you just start painting?

 

I sanded with 320 to scuff it up and 1000grit to fine down the scuffs... it seemed to stick pretty well. but who knows, haha, it may flake off in a week... or when I actually decide to wash it...

 

looks real good!

 

Cool thanks! I am about to do this as well to my truck. Let me know if you have any flaking or any other issues that you run across! Thanks!

 

Layton, damn didnt know anyone else lived in that little town. My aunt used to live there
