Rear bumper emblem painting
Alright...here's the deal.
As some of you know, I'm painting my car electron blue. Well, they don't make a rear bumper emblem that is painted this color, so I had to buy a blank one along with some touch up paint, and plan to do it myself.
Any tips you can give me to paint this to make it look like it came from the factory? And should I clear coat it or anything like that? Any brands that you would recommend that I don't have to get through mail order?
Thanks!

Re: Rear bumper emblem painting (UA89Vette)
I went down and got a model builders airless paint kit, and aircraft enamal paint, hooked to compressor and painted mine,,, came out nice.... also works great for touchup and detailing ...
