Cost nothing, took 5 minutes and looks much better IMO.

I've seen one other like this. There's a thread here somewhere...

It looks really good! I know the other one that did it used nail polish. I was thinking of using my touch up pen (and a smaller paint brush of course) so that I get the colour matched to my car!

I mixed the paint with a bit of water so that it was pretty thin. I didn't really "paint" the numbers, I just touched the brush to the numbers and the paint ran out and filled them.

Any paint that accidentally got on the surface I just wiped off with my finger without disturbing the numbers.

Thanks for the tips! I'll take my time with this one.

very nice... wonder if I could paint numbers on my auto's shifter knob... lol.

I did this mod.. I used a red nail polish and I took a old brush from a eye liner pen to paint the numbers cause its a little brush.... wipe off extra and done it looks great!!!!

I did this as well...red nail polish...didn't even have to be neat. The face of the knob was basically all red and it filled in the numbers and used nail polish remover on a paper towel and rubbed the surface when dried and everything that I didn't want on it came
off and worked like a charm...thanks for the idea
