Which Chris? My rear emblems are black, not the front though. I used satin finish Spray paint and didn't prep them before painting so I'll have to redo it when I'm done with school.

I would recommend putting clear coat on it too, lots of it since that area is probably prone to rocks

 

[cbcbd]

Rotors and pads are here!

yep, I just got mine too.

But I'm a little annoyed. I ordered the Metalmasters and they sent me POSIs instead for the rear with a little note saying "the material on the POSI is the same as the Metalmasters".

I mean, wtf?

 

[Rism]

Anyone got any tricks for those damn endlink bolts?

 

[NeverSober]

Yea.............dont just do it with them still on.......

 

[Rism]

Yea.............dont just do it with them still on.......

huh?

We were 0 for 6 (installs) with getting the end links off. I read on another thread if you spray them with WD-40 (or alternative), wrap them with a WD-40 soaked cloth and let it sit overnight they will come off in the morning. We didn't have that much time though.
