you mean like gunmetal?

I'd like a gunmetal logo for the trunk, as for the paint, I have yet to clear coat it, just put it on in case anyone had any color ideas, I'm looking at just leaving it black though.

Leave it black... It looks great as is.

And the trunk.. Yea, go for a RED/GUNMETAL color.. It'll definitely kick..

I'm doing custom CF badge for my trunk. I had RRM send me some CF scraps with my CF grill so I could do some mitsu badges for the trunk and the center of the grill.

I sanded it, but I didn't sand the chrome completely off, I just roughened it up for the paint to have something to stick too. BTW I'm going to CC it tomorrow.

I lived in Devine, which is 30 miles south of SA when I bought the car, I since moved back to Belton, which is 60 Mi north of Austin.
