From silver to black...
$50.00 later...well, $75.00 for the black lettering and $50.00 to the body shop. Now that I see how easy it was to do...I could do do it myself the next time...Hopefully there wont be a next time!

Pictures are before ( while it was still at the dealer-before any mods), during and then the final outcome. Turned out perfectly! Just like from the factory.

Looks nice, but it would have been cheaper to spray the silver lettering black with plasti dip

Been there, done that...doesn't last, peals, chips, wrinkles...not a long term option...

$125.00 is not a lot of money to help change the look of my car, right?

On a more entrepreneurial note, I have a silver set for sale...

Kinda flat, not glossy...in the middle, I guess. Works well, I am very happy!
