Front badge - split and carbon wrapped.
« on: May 07, 2009, 01:58:36 pm »
I'm sat here having a constructive lunch wrapping my badge - do I split the chrome bit off and do it that way? if so, how?

Any other tips?

Just push it through from the back, a couple of the spines may break but it goes back on nice and tight!  :happy2:

Once you get one edge apart you'll be away!

Your method of splitting the badge is better, i can see the fit is much neater and no chromage poking out.  :happy2:

Yep, I was able to wrap the vinyl around the back of the badge to completely cover it - took some time mind!
