White Carbon Fiber Emblems!!!
It's simple but I love it! What do you guys think... and before I get a ton of questions, its not real carbon fiber, over the weekend I hydrodipped them... cool mod but takes a lot of patience...

whiteout is like an "off white". its dull dude to the pearl flake. so when it is near something that is truely white, that dullness really shows. that effect is shown here with your new emblems.
im not hating but pointing out how i see things. this is the biggest reason i avoid parking beside white vehicles esp chevy's.

I agree, i thought about having them painted the same color as the car them dipping them, that way they match better, but I wanted to practice the dipping procedure before i pay that kind of money... thanks for the inputs

Looks tacky. They don't flow very well with pearl paint job of your FRS... of course IMHO.
