   Depends on the theme of your car mate. If the rest is smoked etc then yes but if youve got silver or even some tasty white wheels go for white or silver badges

    Yer i just done mine, but i didnt use any t-cut, i used Brasso and Bug and Tar remover also works as i tried them both, but brasso works better , will get some pictures now. For those of you that dont know what brasso is here is a link : http://www.britsuperstore.com/acatalog/Brasso.html
    
    Ignore the white marks, its where i spilt some of the brasso
