I have this lens too. Its amazing! A photographer I know who uses the Nikkor 70-200 f2.8 lens was amazingly impressed with the results it gives. Very fast focus speed, and very sharp images. You wont be disappointed!!
From what Ive heard, the rears to so little braking that it wont make much difference. But if it aint too much more, then it would look a lot better though! :)
As a victim of this disease, I warn you now, this is a downward spiral into buying all sorts of products!!
Ask yourself WHAT YOU NEED, instead of what you want!
Quick one: Are these the sort of thing you mean?

Are they double sided? So you stick them to the badge, and then cut round the badge to remove the excess?
I only asked because on the 'renault' and 'sport' badges, I will have to completely sand them down, so I will have to remove the sticky pad/glue or whatever it uses. So I didnt know what the best way to glue them back on was :)
I have a slightly different question on this topic, hope you dont mind me asking here instead of starting a new thread :)
Im planning to take the badges of for respraying, whats the best way to put them back on? ie some are glued on, so how do you reglue them?
And does the clio badge clip back in?
Just FYI, AG SRP is not a particularly abrasive polish, so it wont remove a lot of swirls, as it 'mask's a lot of them with fillers etc. So dont be disappointed that the swirls are still there.
As for polishing itself, just put a 5p blob on the cloths and work into a DRY car in small sections...
I assume this is the sort of lacquer you used:?

Ah! Is it this: http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_161875_langId_-1_categoryId_165505
Did you put any lacquer/sealant on the top?
Nice! I think Im going to have my alloys painted that colour, and I'll do my badges too.
What process did you use to paint the badges, and where did you get the paint?
I did post this a while ago, but didnt get much feedback :(
I visited a wheel refurb place near me the other day, and I think Im finally going to get my wheels fully refurbed.....the only question is...what colour do I have them!?
I could stick to the standard colour, which looks like this...
