Default Swap "turbo" emblem

I have a guards red turbo and my script was color matched from the factory. I would like to trade it for a black version. Anyone interested in swapping???

Thanks,

Mark

I have never heard of this stuff. Will it really look good? Have you guys used this stuff before with good results?

I've used it on the rims of another one of our cars. Turned out great, especially for the price. Plus if I do not like it, I just peel it off.

Here is another guy who did his emblem...
