painted pro letters

Hi,
If I get the pro style grill, I would like to paint the TOYOTA letters in Cavalry Blue, has anyone done this? Any guidance on how?
Thanks!!

 

I painted mine. Use lots of tape and an exacto knife and some patience

 

did you use a factory paint? source?

 

Don't the letters pop out?

 

A lot of the grills ship with the letters separate (not installed) so you can just paint them and put on. Use epoxy to install them, the double sided tape won’t last long.

 

@rrentrop might be able to get you cavalry blue vinyl

I used ERA paints. You can check out my thread in the builds section to see multiple things I've painted using their paints and how well they match my MGM

 

You can find letter inserts for the lettering on eBay. Runs about $10 and it just sticks on over the letters.

 

Used the sticker method,.bought from Amazon and has held up for at least 3 months no problems!

 

I don't have a picture of mine at the moment. Picked up an a/m pro grille that the letters were not installed (loose). I taped up the base leaving only the raised letters and bought the paint and clear coat from https://www.automotivetouchup.com/ paint matches perfectly with my factory QS paint. I did 3-4 coats of color.
