Default What do you think of my emblems??

I completely shaved all the emblems off of my truck. There was just too many, being the Big Horn Edition. What I did was sanded just the RAM emblems down, painted them to match my stock color, then airbrushed Graphite on them to make them have the woodgrain look but kind of faint. Obviously not actual woodgrain colors. From a distance they blend in with the truck making them look 3D but up close you can see the difference. The pic is in my signature below. I just wanted everyones opinion, the pic doesn't really do the justice of the finish though!

its hard to see much of a difference, but when i look really close i can kinda see the airbrushing. zoom out and take some more pics from differnet angles and such. i bet they look pretty cool. if you stare at that pic the reflection of your truck almost makes it look like theyre floating in mid air... lol

Yea I get what you are saying thats pretty funny. I didn't look at the pic that way. It was hard to take a pic of it and get the right affect to show it off. plus when I move back further you can't really see the fine detailing. I will try and get a better pic in the right light.
