firehawknwv Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Hey guys I was wondering if any of you have changed the color of your SS emblems on ur headrests. I was thinking of changing mine to blue to match the truck more. If any of you have done this can you tell me if there is a way to do it without removiing the headrests and have them done at a shop somewhere. Thanx!

essess Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 I did mine with a silver paint pen with the headrests on the seats about a year ago. No problems so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JF-03-SS Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 For US red guys, I bet they would look good color matched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackbeast ss Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 diddi Kinda like this: did you paint yours??? what paint did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2bfast Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 For US red guys, I bet they would look good color matched. I have seen them in red......no bueno. My opinion of course did you paint yours??? what paint did you use? Yes. Go to a hobby store and pick up the Testers brand silver model paint. Its got a runny consistancy that obsorbs into the stitching in the emblem really well. Looks exactly like it was stitched unless you told someone its painted.
