Thanks everyone, not sure how soon I'll be getting them, there's no price listed and you have to call the company for color matching, but, honestly, I like it the way they are.

I am thinking of painting the red, white and blue stripes on the back bars and leaving them framed in black, I checked with Autobadges.com and they said it would substationally increase the cost if they did it. I build scale models and have a $hitload of paint, supplies and airbrushes, should be pretty easy. Can anyone photoshop the colored stripes on them for me, so I can see if I like it?.

check out swervo's car. he has some of those and they look pretty sick.


i still think they are expencive as ****.

i oughtta learn to paint those. im pretty sure i could do it, im decent with an airbrush. There is a lot of stencils and shields on that kind of stuff that makes it go a lot faster. Stencil in the basic shape and hard edges then freehand it up a bit to give it a more dramatic flair. The guy definatly does a fantastic job, but honestly i dont think that would be much of a challange for any airbrush artist who has done nails before. I would be very suprised if the guy who paints them spends more than 30 min on each emblem.

Dude, how on earth will replacing my fenders GT emblems with these black pony emblems constitute "ricer"? And conversely, you putting those chrome281 emblems, not be? Thats ridiculous.

im talking about the pony with their bones showing...that looks dumb. leave the horse alone, it's just fine the way it is.


as for mine chrome 281 emblems wouldn't be because the GT Emblems are chrome.

i wouldn't have a problem with the horse just being black...but with the white bones airbrushed on their, that looks really ricer
