Cool Chromallusion Badges ?

I just got done repainting the front of my car and i'm wondering if I should redo the badging ? I did my intake and valve covers in purple/green chromallusion, and I love it.
You guys think the badges would oook good ona white car ?

And also, what could I reattach them with ? (kinda late one since they are off :P)

Cool

I don't have any really good pics of the engine bay yet, but here is the same color. It's a color shifting paint.

that color is sweet. i like it a lot. go for it. that would look good on a lighter or dark color car. but the med color cars i dont think it would match. excelent for black, white, silver, pewter. not so much for red green or blue

I've seen the chromallusion paint kit for sale locally but I was kind of skeptical of it. How long have you had your intake and vavle covers painted? Any discoloration? Seem durable?

Please, please, get some pics.

Cool

I've had to Chromallusion by dulpicolor on my intake and valve covers and after all the heat and spilling oil on them, they haven't faded or peeled a bit. I am very impressed. You must take the right step. I degreased and actually used a paint stripper on the parts, then a light sanding followed by paint thinner. You use a primer and then a few coats of paint, then the clear and it looks bada-bing

I'll buy some batteries for my camera tonight so I can get some more pics
