Ok guys, couple of questions, I wanna get new rear 'Citroen' & 'Saxo' badges and spray them, then replace the old ones. Having a silver car, do i spray them black or the same colour as the car?
Secondly how much are new badges gonna cost from Citroen?

just use a hair dryer to heat them up to get them off the car

then just rub them down with very fine wet and dry paper

the spray a couple of layers of primer

then a couple of paint

then spray with laqure

then fit them back to the car smileys/smiley14.gif

if you make any mistakes when spraying just let them dry and sand them down and do them again smileys/smiley14.gif

i would do them silver smileys/smiley20.gif
