So I just picked up another rear emblem since I lost mine after I debadged my trunk lid. ANYWAYS. My front grill is painted black, with the emblem still chrome. The car is Brilliant Silver, because, well, I am brilliant. So should I leave the rear emblem chrome, or paint it black? Or maybe some form of a dark gray so it's not so contrasting with the silver color? I DUNNO MAN, HALP!

OMG....what? Since you went with black on the front grille I feel the Mt Fuji emblem should be BLACK!

I'm just being overdramatic for the sake of being overdramatic for the sake of being redundant. If I had som di-noc, I woulc wrap it in that... oh well. I'll paint it black tomorrow, maybe the Rolling Stones could help me out...

I left my front and rear emblems chrome and my grille is painted black.
I think it looks good, anything else most of the time looks ghay.

Holy Crap Joker, sure glad you said "Most of the time." I wouldn't want you to think/assume that just because we voted for BLACK we were gay. (that is the correct spelling according to the newspapers etc.)Originally Posted by JOKER

Some things just need not to be changed.
Chrome emblems are one of them, once you start painting your emblems, stripes and flames and not far behind.

Lol, I'm not a doucher. I think I might experiment with a dark gray for the rear emblem. If it looks dumb, I can always resand/repaintOriginally Posted by JOKER

+1111 The contrast of the chrome on the black makes it look good. Painted emblems don't look good IMO.Originally Posted by JOKER

But his coupe is BS so the dark rear Mt. Fuji would look cool. With OB the contrast between the chrome/black looks good as long as everything but the Mt. Fuji has been debadged....
Only reason I haven't taken mine off I don't wish to confuse anyone into thinking my coupe was anything else but an Infiniti.
