It's clean. I like it. I did that with plastidip and gold paint/clear coat a while back. Looked great but the gold didn't really go well with the car. So I pealed it off =)

it looks good, but why gold? It doesn't match anything.

I was experimenting with a silver/gold theme rather than silver and black (and chrome). The gold didn't come out as nice as I expected so I pealed it all off

If I had a white max, I'd probably do what you did, Dman1989

Looks nice!

I painted mine black then did the letters in silver like the car. Some of the letters didn't come out clean as yours though.

Thanks man. Yours looking good too. Im proud that some here are being creative and thinking outside the box. Some people tell me they want to do this like that guy did or what they seen... A repeat performance .. Im like to myself... dude think something creative.. you want to draw people's attention like yo that's dope never seen that before... like Ghozt, 20_maxima_10, eesjunin and a few others.

and yup that's a hide away plate. It takes hours if you don't know what your doing. Already installed on 3 7th gens, 2013 Accord and on my boy's G37 so it's easier now.
