Do i/dont i?

[Pint]

Need some opinions.

Im spraying my bullets and front diamond as we speak.
Car is Titanium and the badges have gone Rover stone grey.

Now the plan was to paint the lettering in silver to match the car. But now ive got the first coat of paint down im not sure whether to keep them like that. I dont want to put the badges on the car then decide i want to paint the letters later becuase they were a pain in the arse to get off already.

Heres one drying currently...

What to do??

 

[Keano]

have you laquered them?

almost changes the whole colour, so i would'nt worry

Same combo as me, do the lettering silver. Takes ages but worth it!

 

[Craig]

not thought about doing the writing black?

Not lacquerd yet as that is the first coat of paint drying as we speak.

I quite like it which is why im unsure. Anyone got pics of their colour combo's like this?

Cheers Koi. If you wouldnt mind getting a side on pic of the car? Would be quite hand so i could compare that to unpainted.

I have mine sprayed black just. with the lettering the same colour. orignally painted the letters on one of them white, but could not got a clean enough finish so just done them all black.

HAHA, Cheers fella.

What colour are your bullets? Also, what paint did you use to do the silver lettering?

 

[koi]

They are Rover stone grey and kind of cheated with the silver lettering lol Had a silver metallic marker pen so used that

Silver lettering is a must IMO.... It just looks so much better

LOL!

Really dont know whether to get a silver touch up pen or something like the plasti-kote enamel stuff.

And yes, you have made me stick with my origional plan of doing the silver letters.

Either way do the lettering silver :rasp:
