I just couldn't justify the crazy price tag for the sticker inlays, and I did not feel comfortable spray painting on the bumper so I did the next best thing. Plasti dip. Surprised how well it turned out. I taped off the area and then used a cube piece of foam with a paper towel on it to "wipe evenly" across the lettering per coat to get the plasti dip off the paint, but stay in the lettering (if that makes sense)...best part, if I get tired of it ill just peel it out of the lettering and not hurt the paint
What exactly did you use to "wipe" across the letter?
My plasti-dip experience says that it wouldn't wipe away cleanly after spraying but I of course could be doing it wrong.

i had a piece of garbage Styrofoam laying around that was in the shape of a cube that I wrapped a paper towel around. I'm sure anything would work really.

just made it slightly damp. Since the paint is wet, wiping wet with wet didn't really do much. In fact - I found wiping probably helped fill in the lettering a little as well!
