So my s2000 goes into the paint shop in about two days. Its an 02 and has some surface scratches and fading so its just time to paint. While its down I have tossed around the idea of painting the emblems Satin black just so they would stand out better on the fresh new paint. I looked at the black chrome emblems but think I would like the Satin better ( rims are already a satin black so they would match them well. )

Anyways my question is has anyone else done this,and if so could you post up some pictures?

 

At first I assumed you were talking about the Honda badges on the trunk and hood. I'm guessing you are going to shave those?

Based on your sig, it would really finish off your theme
Just my .02

 

Maybe paint your mirrors black too? Or would that be too tacky?

 

I did this recently along with my wheels and side emblems and I love it!

 

Thinking of painting them all ( Front,rear and both sides )

 

That looks awesome! What kind of paint did you use? Im courious also on what kind of paint to use cause i dont want anything that is going to fade fast or chip.

 

I want to know...there is a silver s2k for sale for 12,700 with approx 58k miles. tax tags all together is about 13,500. condition is pretty good, 1 owner and clean. what u all think of the deal? is it good? or should I find another?

 

what year?

 

Yeah, all depends on the year I'd say.

I used Duplicolor Trim Paint - OEM Black (green can), made sure they were clean and smooth first then gave them a couple coats. So far, I've only had to touch up the front emblem because I do a lot of interstate driving and there were a couple dings no larger than a grain of sand.

 

its a 2000, dunno if it is a good deal or not. just afraid that they trying to rip me off.
