It finally got warm enough here to get some paint on the badges. It took a while to find metallic blue that matches the stripes on our car. For anybody looking to do this, it is much easier to do if the badges are NOT on the car. For me, we weren't going to pay >$100 for new badges just to make it easier to paint. Just painted them on the car.
When I had my silver GT500 I bought the red side emblems and painted my rear emblem like so

Something to consider...

Just got done fully detailing the girlfriend's Shelby.
She is in love with the car all over again, lol.
Amazing how off-white that white got when dirt was embedded in the paint.
This took almost 4 hours and my back is killing me, but I'm psyched with the results.
Like she said, need sunglasses now to look at it, lol

This afternoon I did the clay bar, cutting compound, finishing glaze, and paint sealant.
Cleaned the wheels, shined up the tires, applied some special stuff to the black hood vents to make them shine, cleaned the rockers, and took some pics
Looking forward to doing mine next

Mine will be black, so I've got the MMD decklid panel (matte black & ribbed for pleasure...err...to match the license plate surround) and some subtle matte black stripes. Debating on a matte black roof wrap and going matte black on the spoiler as well....but starting with baby steps. I'll share pictures....if my car ever leaves the factory.
