You would either have to buy a used one from a forum member, do it yourself, or take it to a shop. I started doing mine myself, did the majority of the work, but I was unhappy with it not looking exactly how I wanted, some parts were a little wavy so I dropped it off at a body shop and they finished it off for me and I had them professionaly paint it using Dupont paint. I'll be going emblemless again, but I'm still deciding on the color. I like the OEM color, but I'm also thinking about going chrome, but I'm not sure if it will be too much, even though I have quite a bit of chrome trim pieces (those that came with the car and that I added) on the car already.

Step lip doesn't come in 11's, plus I wanted to do something a lil different. Subtle difference with step fronts and reverse lips, but it's still a difference.
