my car is in dire need of a wash and wax.. yes i know.. LOL.

but anyway.. here are the results...

there's a tiny bit of overspray drip on the left side.. so i'll be sanding and redoing the whole thing whenever i get the time... but at least i know what it looks like.. and i think it looks damn good... when i get my optic blue vinyl covers and put on my glossy black eyelines... its gonna be the bomb shizzle.. lol.. sloppy chop a few pics down

Looks good , but I am not a fan of the open spot where the badge went . You should have just painted that to match.But I am not trying to get on to you I think the car looks great!

Def on the right track man. Looks much better than that huge nasty chrome thing.

I vote black ford emblem with chrome letters or just blacked out.

That looks amazing. What kind of paint did you use? Did you remove the chrome first?
