Added a couple more coats to make them darker.

I got them in last week. They look great on and no need to shave down under the original emblems. Will post pics.

I like the satin pieces on eBay too. I know I can search for this but how hard are these to swap. Are they just held on with 3M tape and do the replacement ones just stick on?
Would like to see pics before I order!

To get off the original emblem I got finishing line (or dental floss) and folded it over a couple times to make it thicker. I then heated the emblem with a hairdryer for about 15 seconds. I fed the fishing line under the side of the emblem and, in a saw like motion, went back and forth with the fishing line. It peeled away the emblem very easily. You may need to heat intermittently. Hope this helps.

Sorry for delay with pics. I've been getting home too late. I'll try and get them up tomorrow.
