Question emblems

I'm trying to get the Trans Am emblems on the sides detailed red. Do I need to order them from somewhere or can a shop just paint them? Thanks.

You can get brand new emblems already painted from your local dealership. I think I paid $32.00 for both. In my opinion they look better than the overlays, plus the overlays are a PITA to have them lined up perfect.

My colors are Black red and silver....for everything. Black red and silver bike, black red and silver/chrome Sea Doo XP. Unfortunately it's a very common theme, but we live in two different parts of the country, so I say go for it!
