540 Badge

First Update: IND 540i Badge - All of the trim on the car is black so this one had to be done ASAP. Process was easy enough, I tape around the letters to provide boundaries for the new one while protecting the paint from the heat gun treatment. I only used the heat for 30 seconds or so. A trim tool wrapped in a shop towel was enough to pry the number loose. I used a adhesive remover wheel (highly reccomend) to get the big stuff off and then a little goo gone to finish it off. In hindsight, I would have given my self marking for the start and end of each number/letter. I had to eyeball it a bit, ended up with one adjust on the 4 and the final result I'm happy with. It's one of those things where if you are off the slightest and can notice it, it will drive you crazy until you fix it.
