Love that you guys have the ballz to do that much work. Still, love my Supersports and wouldn't ever consider this. I think the factory got it right

Yes I have some. We have added a few things to it but the car overall is complete but here are some I took quickly. We will be having it professionally shot shortly after the clear bra is installed.

It looks great. How much do you charge to paint just the Bentley Emblems?

I wonder how those would look on a black car.

The CGT here is factory black and dull black emblems will not look 'right' imho. Instead, you'd want a more 'lustrous' than the factory black body paint so the emblems stand out just a small bit more. Dull black emblems on 'polished' black paint (factor Bentley color) generally looks too awkward/disjointed.

For an small 'eye candy' comparo, look at what dull black rims look like against factory black body and maybe that will give you a hint at what i am alluding to.

Just my humble opinion of course and it is your car so please feel free to do with it as you so choose. To each their own and all that.

PS: Just was looking at my avatar at the top left of my post, if you look at the far left of the emblem it looks slightly glossy black and that might help you see what i mean as it stands out against the factory paint. Just trying to help.
