The emblems I'm not sure about, I kinda like how the silver makes them "pop" but at the same time black could look really good. I'm definitely going to plasti them as the time it takes isn't long. The fangs and rear valence took longer since taping them take a while where as with the logos you simply put a square around them and spray it.

That is an amazing meet-up! I'm impressed. 8 370z would be impressive to me, but 8 40ths! Not sure if you noticed, but the Z with the plastidip'd emblems also has plastidip fangs... and there definitely seems to be more contrast then in my photos. Looks good!

Not a big fan of the black emblems (at least not on the front). I think its because the headlight housings are so bright, if those were painted too it would tie it all together nicely.

Also, I love the chin spoiler on that one 40th, so sexy! I would definitely be interested in adding one of those soon.

I didn't even notice it when i copied the link, But now i remember seeing it in person. And i think your right about needing the chrome to flow with the headlights.

That's xdeslitx. That's the bumper and Bomex front lip and handles he had painted.
