What did you use for the Brembo emblem? Paint? Sticker?
I have already had all 4 of mine replaced and now the new ones are starting to have a few places where the paint is coming off again, so I might need to paint mine in the future this is why I ask.
Thanks

I seldom comment in show and shine since I don't have the ***** for criticism lol but I will say I'm a little put off by black wheels. For one, when viewed from a distance they're hard to distinguish. Not until you're up close, or there in real life, can you see what they look like. The silver lip helps balance it a bit, but without it, it looks like two gaping holes in the side of the car. The blacked out brakes only add to that. But that's just my st00pid opinion.

Otherwise it looks like a very clean job, so props for that.
