I didn't paint the emblem. It isn't on in the pictures. My had the top part broken, so I removed it all, got a new one from the dealer, and put it on yesterday afternoon:




And yes, I want to paint the headlights flat black next. That, and tinting the side markers, as well as a stubby antenna are my future body mods.

+1 I also had a clear bra installed on my car once I had my hood and front bumper repainted. Ive had it for 3 weeks and have driven my car about 3-400 miles since its been installed and with road construction everywhere I havent seen more than 1 or 2 chips that just happen to be on the exposed sections, but better than the 30+ chips I had all over the front.

I had the front bumper and hood repainted on my IX and it cost me $600 at one of the best bodyshops in MA, although it wasnt blended in because he didnt need to since it matched perfectly.
