In about 1.5 hours I got my black/yellow accent badges installed. Aside from removing the glue/tape from the original badges this was a breeze. I used some adhesive remover supplied by AO and their plastic scraping tool. Just about 10-15 mins of determination to get the old adhesive off In addition, I used 99% isopropyl alcohol to clean any solvent and prepare the surface.
I’d recommend using painters tape to outline the existing badges rather than tracing the outline while overlaying the new badges from AO. Run the painters tape (frog tape) right up against the existing letters and make a box around the badge. The overlaying method and marking with a dry erase marker worked, but wasn’t as exact and left some room for error. I used both methods.
Overall I’m super happy with the black and a yellow accents. I had the black stickers before and they promptly came off in the car wash. Yes, I go though a car wash about once a week (Club Car Wash).

I also got the sunshade by AO. I feel like the fit could be a bit better, but it is much better than the sunshade I got on Amazon. Took about 15 mins of messing around with it to get it just right. This is not something you want to take off and on the regular. The supplied clips and magnet secure it well. I might suggest Abstract Ocean include a few extra clips since a few of mine fell between the seats.
