Thanks for the tip. I will update this thread when ever I get my new emblems done.

Those looks real good on your truck. How did you do that?

Like mentioned above, the front emblem is a multi-piece emblem which makes it very easy to paint. The rear emblem was done with a vinyl mask for the Ford script and oval outline. It didn't turn out 100%, but I have an idea to try on my spare camera emblem if I can find the time to so it.

I don't see the flaw but I'll tell you those are some of the nicest emblems I've seen.

Yup, I am trying to do that with my 2011 Limited. I plastidipped them all white and doing a clear pearlizer over them to see if it evens out the white. Its hard to match the pearl white up.

Those emblems look fantastic, great job!
