Bonnet Badge - LewisG - 27-11-2014
Ive seen a lot of people get rid of the tacky chrome bonnet badge and respray it with a nice grey or black ect, how do you go about this?

Open the bonnet, 2x 10mm nuts on the back, remove and then give the plastic a key, plastic primer, your chosen colour (gloss/matt/satin) and then a lacquer in your chosen finish.

Plastic a key?

Key = rough it up
Just light grade sandpaper to take the shine off it so the paint sticks better basically.

If you dont have any sandpaper a sponge with a green scourer pad thing on it will work.. Not that ive ever done that lol

Personally, i just used acid etch primer....its not flaked yet!

Nice - was just about to ask this question too.
Would that be the same for the rear boot?
RE: Bonnet Badge - WiNgNuTz - 06-12-2014
Yeah you can do the same with the rear badge, it might want some gentle persuasion to seperate it from the lock mechanism, but it can be done.

I never done this with mine, looks like my badge will be flaked.. im no good when it comes to sandpaper, I had mucked up one of my interior part, I will have to get a new one and try again on it..
