gee i wonder where that idea did come from
here is my method (not that chads is wrong)
1.print emblem offline
2. cut out emblem shape
3. spray paper emblem with 3m adhesive and stick on piece of masking tape.
4. cut out shape with ezacto knife
5. put tape emblem over lens
6. paint (use actual black paint, not tint)
7. peel off tape emblem
take it a step further:
prep the lens using 400 grit sandpaper and shave down all the lettering that is raised on the lens, that way when you paint it, its smooth. (something i figured out after mine was done)
