Well after some experimenting heres what I came up with folks. Let me know what you think.:D

Hard to get good pictures of the way it looks. The digital camera I have has a hard time picking up the 'black chrome' look I was going for. Looks much better in person, believe you me. Very similar mod to the center cap mod, but I used slightly smaller Mercury's heads. I didn't remove all of the waterfall symbol in order to give it a superimposed look. The remaining lines of the waterfall are blacked out though. All in all I like the way they look. Looks better than the stockers anyway. Gives a more subdued visage.

My thanks to Rich (magindat) for sending me the old badges to work with!:beatnik:

Nice and subtle appearance. What did you use to paint over the chrome?

How did you prep it before applying the niteshade?

Fine sanding. Not much, just enough to scuff the chrome a bit.
