Which brand of black paint should I get for the emblems?
thanks!!

Correct, but if they start to get condensation, they aren't going to replace them. Not a huge deal, but def won't lose your warranty over such a minor mod.

Do you think it'll look better to black out the whole thing instead of leaving that chrome there? and also how'd you get that line like the brz on the fr-s headlights?

To be honest iv seen the the whole thing blackedout and to me theres just no character there its just all black had to add somthin to make it a little more aggresive and i just taped it off then sprayed over it. Doesnt light up like the brz one but we cant all be winners -

I've never seen the whole thing blacked out..do you have any pictures? I was thinking of getting the headlights blacked out, and then where you left it chrome, I was going to make it a gloss white. And yeah I love that line that the BRZ has! In the headlights on that fr-s, it looks like it has it.

I wanted to know if I painted the high beams section a gloss white, would it let me keep most of the high beams functionality. lol
