Basically, ive got mudflaps on my motor. (Some pics on photo gallery - Cirrus blue 325)

I wanted to paint the BMW bit on the flaps white because i just thought it might set it off a bit more!

Anyone done this? Or seen them done? Or will it look rather shyte?!
I'll check with the manager

Try it? You can get washable glass pens in white... Try it, if not, jet wash it off... Get some pictures though :cool:

In my humble opinion it will look like a big bag of wrongness

I wouldn't do it, however mask it off and use white paint, quick primer and then a quick dust with the white paint.

Well its worth a shot! I think it could be a love/hate thing or just depending on the colour of the car could make it or break it! By the time its lowered (in the next week or so) and the flaps are whitened up it might look quite trick! I will sort some pics out for you lot to judge :D
