badge holes question

[sause]

okay so i took off my mazda badge and protege badge which leaves 4 holes to fill, i snapped the plastic piece on the left protege hole but went to a mazda dealer and picked up another one to protect against rust and ordered 4 more so i can replace the other 3 original ones and have a total of 4 new fresh ones with 1 extra just in case. so here is my question, i also picked up some touch up paint while i was there and i was wondering what it would look like if i put some paint on the plastic pieces to blend them in with the cars color until i weld them shut. good idea? bad idea? tacky? i would love feed back before/if i do it. btw the plugs do not leak water. *win* any alternatives? here is a pic.

nice bronco, did you weld yourself or did you get a shop to do it? cost? how long did it take? thanks for not taking the easy route and put a cbf trunk on. looks 10 times better and its way more unique.

1+ for a slick msp my friend.

its a mp3 lol..but ya i got hit in a parking lot a few months ago, so when it was in the body shop i payed 400 extra to have the holes filled, a crease on the trunk fixed, and a dent in the drivers door fixed..well worth it...i love the badgeless look
