Hey Guys,

Recently ran into an issue when i had finished painting my side skirts, realized i had not taped off the badge properly, now im left with a terrible finish around the badge, have no idea what to do now, and i dont plan on re painting the whole thing.

My ideas: Was thinking, maybe i can remove the badge and put some kind of plate or black outline around the badge, to cover the bad paint job (should or removed the badge in the first place before painting...)

any other ideas?

use touch up pens, cheap and precise enough for that kinda job

It doesn't seem like that big of a deal - Touch up paint like suggested seems like a good idea, or you could even use a compass tip and lightly go around the whole badge to give it a silver outline/bezel effect if you don't want to re paint. Would have to be careful with this though, making sure you don't scratch the actual plastic too deep.

Could even use felt tip if you're not too fussed. People aren't going to get on all fours to observe your paint.
