This is something i had been contemplating for a couple of months.

My car is metallic black and i was planning on getting a spare fuel flap and getting it sprayed the same colour as the rest of the car but having a ghosted vw logo in very very faint silver that looks like it it is runnning(as in the paint from the vw badge is running)
I want it so faint you can only see it at the right angle and the silver had to look the same colour as the metallic fleck in the paint.

I will get it done but if it looks pants i can just put my old flap back on.

Have a look on German ebay for some ideas theres loads of airbrushed stuff on there.
