The outside pillars... I'm not sure the brand.. some of the guys on here might know.. but they make a spray black just for those pillars and it works REALLY good.

Read the same thread a while back. I might do my entire SC in it, and when I get tired of it, just peel it off

Li LS4 - did you take the emblems off or just leave them on the car as well?

^ you just leave them on the car. once the plastidip dries, it peels right off and leaves no marks.

yup left them on and just pealed it off the paint. i used a tooth pick to get the inside part off. Although for the front emblem i did it a little differently and it came out WAY better.

i had to take the emblem off of my old bumper and put it onto my 97+ bumper. So what i did is take the emblem off the bumper, scape the glue off, put it back on bumper without any glue on it. i then sprayed it just like i did with the rear, pealed the outside off, and then lifted the emplem off the bumper and the extra stuff in the center of the L stayed on the bumper. It came out a lot nice this way. but it works fine without taking the emblem off
