Chrome Emblem? Black Emblem? How about a combo!

after going back and forth and back and forth on the black and chrome emblem, I decided to go with this set up. Its actually a carbon fiber insert but I like the look!

people paying too much attention to their emblems. imo either leave it alone or take it off should be the only things people do to them. lol maybe even paint them black but thats it!

im not seeing what you guys see. The chrome emblem by itself looks out of place on the LP and the full black emblem looked too out of place with no other blacking out. I think this setup looks the best. Obviously to each their own. Ill probably rock this set up for awhile.

I like it, looks like it was done well too. If you didn't have your diffuser in black then IDK, but with the black back there I think it's pretty cool. Definitely better than plasti-dip.

Thanks...

it also kinda matches the midnight grill up front (which is partly also why I wanted to do black and chrome)

From far away it looks amazing, close up you can see the carbon fiber. And unless you have any other carbon fiber (on the exterior) which I don't think you do it looks a little off. Maybe if your diffuser overaly was cf? Obviously it goes well with the interior work you did but no one on the road can see that. Could you paint it black? I know, I know, kinda picky but that's how i see it. Ps if you ever wanna ditch that spoiler you know who to talk to...
