Here's a few of my emblems, done with the "Smoke" PlastiDip, plus some misc wildlife hanging around while I was installing / masking the rear and painting.

Great mod for the ~$12 or so beans the can of PlastiDip ran. Picture looks like the rear is blue; while there's some blue bleed-through it's pretty dark and difficult to tell. Plus I'd have to mask everything off again to put another coat on

Front emblem in my makeshift paint box

Rear masked for dipping

Front with the modified emblem

Rear with the modified emblem (looks really blue; it's not in everything but direct, bright light)

Found this guy helping me test if the dip was truly dry

This feller (or lady?) lives around the house; I'm glad it's not larger or it might scoop my mini Teckel up into the sky

A lot of metalizer on it to turn the black to a silver to match the paint. Opinions?
I might get a new front emblem if it don't look good enough to me once on the truck lol

Upgraded phone to Android 4.4.2, after a hiccup or two and some restarts I now get Artist and Song info via bluetooth. Much better than Unknown, unknown.

Do you have MFT?

I'm on 4.3 (S4) and 4.4.2 (nexus 5) and neither of them show anything but "Bluetooth Audio" but I don't have MFT.

Yes. 13 with MFT. Using a Nexus 4 and Pandora. Might be app specific, I'll have to check amazon and google's music apps.
