    How did you go about painting the emblem? Is it just sprayed with the bumper?

    Hey Doax,
    First I outlined where I wanted to paint my bumper at, then I protected the area around it with more tape and paper. After that I spray painted it with plastidip, now the big mistake I made was not spraying on a thick coat fast enough to peel off where I had outlined fast enough. When it dried (for several hours) i couldn't remove the tape wothout ripping the plastidio off. So i had to chisel around the outline so i could remove the tape from the plastidip(which took atleast 3 hours) I could have done it faster but my razor was ****, and it was freezing cold at 9pm.

    And i almost forgot, that box of wipes, I used them to clean the surface where I was going to apply the plastidip so I wouldn't get dirt under my paint job.
