Default I did mine...

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/42271/badges.jpg"></center><p>Its not that hard to do. scuff the chrome finish on the emblems with a SOS pad then take some clear paint and mix in a small amout of black till you get a smokey looking paint. Then spray... the darker you want it the more coats you do. I have also seen people use that spray tint for tails on badges to. Hope that helps.
