Not true........................


As for the emblem, you should have painted it to where it looks like it belongs. Even with the other chrome removed, it's not going to look right. I tell you after a while you are going to look at it and say to yourself, self, what was I thinking? At least it is easy to remove.


Edit: That post above about the black chrome would work well but make sure you do all chrome in the black chrome so it all matches.

this might sound like a stupid question:
black chrome = metallic black? Mind giving me an amazon link?

^ I believe its a method. I forgot how its done but I believe a body shop should be able to do it for you. If you do plan to paint (yes not plastidip), then have the bodyshop look into the batarang as well. On Amazon, thats all trash.

Another idea just to save you time and money, would be painting in black. Yes, black on black, however it will blend in. Or you could do a metallic grey.

Since you asked .... High Schoolish but it's your car and it's a free country so do what YOU like. (and I'm not a fan of Rudy's G)

Nice. Great start. Let me ask you a few questions.

The batarang is black, and so is everything else, right? How and what did you used to paint it? From the picture it looks off, but could be the quality of picture. Can you provide more pictures?

Lastly, your chrome spoiler, what color is that? grey or black?

Overall, looks better with the direction and good you went with black. I would now actually debadge infiniti and keep the G37XS. Would make it the perfect touch.

Thanks sorry for the delay. I'm gonna upload more pics tomorrow probably. I used the black Plasti Dip on the spoiler too... I'm considering re-painting the entire car with Plasti Dip to give it that matte black look. Keep the logo the nice gold that it currently is.

^, I wouldnt advise that. What I would advise is vinyl your car. Alot of people do it and its actually a new thing now. Looks clean and you can get many different colors. Check the forums for pictures. You can also get the individual parts vinyled as well.

Good luck

Whoa.. He wasn't kidding about the Plastidip the entire car kind of thing huh?

The Batarang and emblems look good actually in that matte finish but Im not feeling the the trunk. The spoiler looks good comparatively. But his car, his direction! GL
