    I am going to be changing out the 9" and 7" emblems to black like some of you guys did, but before i spend $120 on 2 replacements I'm going to try to paint and clear coat these myself. I've done some good paint work for my corvettes so i think this should work out, but i'm not sure of what...

    Front emblem removal? (i know, not again)

So i was thinking of getting a touch up bottle of tuxedo black and painting the chrome explorer letters on the rear black, similar to the pic. What do you guys think?? (the pic was a 5 min...
