I'm still doing it but only Magnetic Black (G41). Also not doing a wait list or any sort of pre-payment since I can't give a good time frame. So once I'm done with all the current pre-paid orders I will occasionally post up Mag black handles completed and ready to ship for core swap...probably only two sets available per month.

Another shout-out to equalme's painted emblems! Finally got them on the car. When I was getting my car tuned at Z1 yesterday, one of the guys complimented the handles! Several of them complimented Magma Red color...

hey this may sound stupid but do u think that the new pearl white paint in the handles and emblems will wear in an fade a little in the sun to match better later??
if not I don't mind the slight brighter color difference that much.

It takes a couple of months for the base and tricoat to fully cure...so it might. The clear I use on the handles though have 2-3x more UV protection in it than industry standard. So there is also a high chance it won't fade at all.

Pearl White is just pretty much impossible get a good match without having to blend into other panels.

RBfastback 08-03-2014 11:28 PM

ok cool an I figured it's hard to match perfectly.

like I said tho even if it doesn't it still looks damn good and I'm happy the way it looks.
just wondering

Some people just can't catch a break. So I had plastidipped my emblems red and it didn't match at all. A guy I know gave me **** because of it. He is over here this evening and I point out that I took off the crap red and paint matched the emblems and he gives me **** because they aren't chrome. **** that guy, he just doesn't "get" it.

I love the emblems and wouldn't change a thing.

There's nothing to get. It's your car.
