I actually think it doesn't look too bad. Looks decent!

At first before I clicked on the pic link, I thought you had painted the areas around the circles as well. Phew!

In terms of being painted - I like the s5's better than the s4's.

damn, that looks really nice, if you could find a way to get rid of the lines around them, like totally white to look like part of the car it would absolutely rock

It looks alright. Personally I liked them better the other way, but those are still good.

I think you need to plug those holes from where the badges were, that looks crappy with those little holes everywhere.
