Question Painting my t/a front plate cover

Hey everyone. I have a red ws6, and yesterday I painted my firebird logo on the front license plate cover. Basically, it looks like ***. I can see all the brush strokes and so forth.

Who has done this appearance mod well, and how did you do it? Or any other ideas?

Thanks,
-Kin

Cool. Any special type of "spray" I should use?
Regular masking tape good?

Thanks

it would look best if you took it to someone to have them spray. if you know someone with a paint gun, i suggest PPG paint, you should clear coat it as well.

If neither of these will work, tape it up and use krylon, its not the best, but will get the job done.

Thinking about it, an air brush would work too on a small area like that.

yes masking tape.
