Cobalt Bumper Cutaway

Hey guys, I just ordered some new badges for my SS/SC as the bow ties were getting really faded, and I was going to try to plastidip the strip running across the grill and also to achieve that classic 'evo mod' cutaway look that a lot of Cobalt's have. Any tips on how to get this look? How do I set up the newspaper? How many coats? Also is it possible to fit an SS badge into the stock SC grill or do I need a custom honeycomb grill? Thanks guys.This is exactly what i want mine to look like, except no black bowties.

With plastidip you should do 2 light coats about 50% coverage, avoiding the tape lines, and 1 wet coat covering everything. Make sure you remove all of your tape within a minute or it will start to dry and you wont get a crisp line. The SC grill doesnt have enough flat surface area to mount an ss emblem

Make that 4 unless you want to spend a day peeling it off.
