Default Project Blue

I had my AP2 internally blue theme.. but the 2007 AP2 does not seem to stand out anymore even though t comes with the blue trim.. albeit.. blue floor mat (too dark actually, and blue leather seats, blue centre console sides. Not much of loudness compare to the AP1 days..

So I decided to give my emblems the blue outline treat! Down with the dull black outline on the S2000 fender emblems..

The original


Flip over and you will see the original design.. semi honey combed structure for add strength.


Zoomed In and you will see the Honda inscription


Masking work now..


Zoomed in. Not the best wrap job.. But that's my best my fingers can offer..


The First 'S' - First Layer.. Down with the primer coat.. 1 layer will do.


The '2000' - First Layer. Primer coat too.. 1 layer.


Now down with the blue! 2 layers... I use hair dryer to add heat to it..
