opinions please!

[Gambino]

Hey guys, I have an extra one of these emblems so I am trying to decide what color to paint all my emblem using this one. I have it high gloss black now, thinking of trying flat black and also white. opinions?

 

[chaosProtege]

i used charcoal duplicolor on my black pro and my silver 3.

 

[Gambino]

how dark is it cuz I want kinda dark, but my rims are kind of a light gunmetal, so that might look good with them

 

[Jeph]

Looks good, I think it'd look cool white

 

[tsunami]

looks good that way i think... also are you tryin some color theme through the interior of your car...? red/blue/black.... you should try to carry that outside of the car...

 

[Gambino]

well my interior is just black/blue. I have also done blue lighting. So I think white or black should look ok

 

[Gambino]

just painted it white real quick and thin w/no clear coat for a basic idea. here are pics

 

[Jeph]

White but clear coat it so its glossier

 

[Gambino]

i love the white too, that is even a really thin coat over the black. My only concern, what if it fades differently than the stock paint? turns kinda yellow? Also, with that being white, should I do my 2.3 emblems white? and also the mazda emblems on the trunk?

wait, you said earlier keep it black.....im confused as to where you stand

i used charcoal metallic on mine. i think you have to either keep them all white or go with a glossy black on white. if you have gun metal wheel even the charcoal will look good. definitely clear coat it.

 

[Gambino]

I am definately going to clear coat whatever I decide to do.....I am just so damn indecisive on color

 

[Mr. Win]

horrid idea... id paint it black, makes it pop a bit.

I like it white - it's stealthy and neat. A lot of people paint them black, so be a trailblazer (not the GM one, of course) and paint it white with a nice clearcoat.

Also, the two holes are behind the Mazda emblem (not the 3 - for it is separate from the Mazda emblem)
