Thumbs up Colored 30th anniversary seat emblems....opinions?

I was feeling stupid one day and decided I wanted the fancy colored emblems on my 97 Camaro seats like the anniversary edition. I used fabric paint for T-shirts that I bought from the local Wal-Mart and a fine brush. Took about 2 hours a seat. I thought it looked good, so I'm passing along the idea to anyone else who wants a "subtly different" look.

I tried the same thing on my back seat with paint markers with an extra fine tip. But I ran into problems because my seats are leather with the embossed logos and the paint wore off. Anybody know a better way for leather?

I've been thinking bout trying this for some time now, but never got around to it. That looks really good. Did you do anything to the 30?

6-speed.. the 30 in the emblem is painted white. The camaro crest is red, white and blue with a black outline on the recesed part of the shield.
