[QUOTE="Plastic Fury, post: 442179, member: 21352"] Oh gotcha. I used blue painters tape and my thumbnail to burnish the edges around the black bezels. Then an x-acto hobby razor to cut around that shape. It worked pretty well. I think my lines are cleaner than they were from Chrysler. I've had a lot of years of painting R/C car bodies, models, etc. and am pretty good with taping out and painting. The SEM lays down so nicely as well so that is a big help. Giving it a light mist first to seal in the tape edges, really keeps you from getting bleeds under the tape. I'll look back and see if I took pics when I painted them but I don't think I did. Here is an up close shot [ATTACH type="full"]122981[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
