Yeah I laquered it. Did'nt flat it down after though as I did'nt want it to be as shiny/ reflective as normal paintwork.

Taken the badge out of my grille today, split the chrome part from the rest, sanded the chrome part, put some primer on. Tomorrow will do it black then the lacquer let it dry then pop it back in, jobs a goodin

Sign yourself up to a website like photoshop or image shack, upload your picture, then paste in the link that has either side of it into your signature box in your profile settings.
