Badge inlays look way better than I could've imagined. didnt even think I'd like it with the matte black but I actually love it

 

[Sandman GTI]

Good color match!

Looks good I did the same but got sick of it and went back to stock.

Very nice! I think I want to do something with my emblems, I just haven't quite figured out what yet.

Thanks all. Doesn't sit perfectly flush actually which is nagging me. No one else will notice but I can tell Bc I put it on kind of thing. We'll see how my feelings shake out and how it looks with the new wheels. Always a work in progress...

I'm confused. I thought it was just a bunch of vinyl pieces you insert?
