Rear trunk lettering/Debadge and Blackout

Name:  AggioRear-800.jpg
Views: 4447
Size:  91.2 KBWhere can I find this lettering in black on the rear trunk. I just bought a black tail light cover from RPI design and black out kit from bigworms for side markers /ZL1 spoiler break light and reverse light. I am also planning to debadge the bowtie and RS emblem and replace them with this lettering. I will install the DJ Predator Grille next week to complete the look. If you have any suggestion or opinion will be appreciated. The bottom pic is the current pic of my ride.
Thanks

I just put on the letters from the side fenders. I painted them to best match the car. I replaced the letters on the side with SS emblems.

What did you paint them with/how? I want mine black. I tried using the overlay decals but they are impossible to install to a perfect fit.

I went to home depot and bought a can of dark gray Rust-oleum spray paint. And a clear coat one. Did about 3 coats of each. They turned out better than expected. They have a wide selection of colors btw. You can also plasti-dip them if you're not sure you want them black permanently.

Did you make those rock gaurds? I like them. They are much more discreet than the OEM ones.

Thanks for the detailed reply...did you tape them off with painters tape, and cut out the insides with a razor blade? that's what I was thinking of doing

No problem, anything to help. It's actually a lot easier to take the letters off and paint them.

Looks great bro. Do you have to sand them when painting?

I didn't sand them down, I just cleaned them thoroughly.
