you can use rattle can, but preferably put through a gun.....

IMPORTANT!!!! YOU NEED TO GIVE IT A GOOD FEW COATS OF PLASTIC PRIMER, BEFORE YOU PUT CELLULOSE PRIMER ON!!!!! OTHER WISE ITLL FLAKE AND REACT!!!

as for the badge, i just used my standard one.....

my golfs gona end up being kustom crazy with the airbrushing, on the interior etc....

if anyone wants a custom cover doing, id be more than happy to do one for you!  :smiley:
