Green Badges??

[lclynch]

hey guys i was just wondering if anyone has sprayed their holden badges and SV6/SS badges green?
Im waiting on the black and green numberplates from the RTA. (if you havent seen them there is an example below).
So really i was wanting my badges to match the plates... Thoughts ?

NO badges would look best imo

i thought of it but if you take off the front badge youre left with the badge shape still.. and ive looked, i dont think anyone makes a plain grill yet. Apart from the VK grill that fits from HDT but its like $380.

Black and Green is a good combo, im doing it myself except opposite . Green car with black parts

But simiilar to you a guy named BONNERS on thsi forum has done some things so you might wana check his thread. He doesnt have green holden badges but he has green stripe, green brakes and his SS badges painted green.

thanks mate, thats what i wanted. But does anyone know who hard it is to get theses badges off to spray and put them back on. Like in the ute are there screws behind the tailgate pannel holding them on or are they sickaflexed on??

There stuck on there by glue. Dental Floss, a hair dryer and a bit of elbow grease will get them off in minutes.

As for painting, i wouldnt have a clue. You could do a home cheap job and just dip it into some paint but i do remember someone on this forum wrapping the MIDDLE section in BLACK vinyl so you could do it in green? Good Luck champ

ok thanks mate. Its just getting it back on that might be a problem...

Easy enough to paint - simple as sand, prime, paint and clear. Treat yourself to new badges though and ditch the old ones - that way you don't have to stuff around with trimming the mounting tape on your existing badges. Paint the new ones up - de-badge and re-badge in one swift, stealth manoeuvre. The car won't know what hit it.

sounds good but how do i re apply the badges?
