    Painting the lettering on a set of DS1's?

    Going to be painting the lettering on a set of DS1's in black.
    Don't really want to attempt to mask it off and spray it, what's a good paint with a brush that I could use to paint this?
    Thanks,

    Just use some really thinned out paint, get a decent size brush, let the paint soak in, dab the letters lightly and let the fluid do its job.

    It'll probably take quite a few layers though

      Wow I work slow. Haha
      Oh well just finished the first one. I definitely don't have the steadiest hands but I have a tiny paint brush!
      Yay or nay?

              I like the syringe idea, wish I had thought of that sooner

                  I know this is an old post, but do you have pics of wheels on the car? Thinking of doing this for my '95 M3.
