I redid all my badgeing black on my monte same black heads/tails and 5% came out nice..... For the badges theres a specific paint you can get that is made just for plastics and it works wonders! Just cant think of what its called....

i did my front and rear bowties a few months back with black spray bomb lacquer along with duplicolor's adhesion promoter. it really did a nice job at the time and still looks good. i've washed the car many times with no chipping or flaking. i emailed duplicolor and they recommended adhesion promoter when painting any plastics.

I wouldn't use NiteShades for the emblems. It isn't designed for that. Use a normal gloss black paint, and make sure to lightly sand the surface so the paint adheres to the emblems better. Good luck.
