    I just bought my wife an M&P 9C and was thinking this would be a good way to personalize her gun, otherwise she'll just say I bought it so I could use it. Was the process as easy as it looks?

    Although it isn't my cup of tea i think you did a pretty good job on it. And to be honest it's no different then when some of the "serious" guys on here put on a FDE stock with a O.D. grip. To each his own as long as it shoots i say go for it!

    It was very easy. As long as you have an hour or two out your schedule, it can be done.

    Nice, but it was already black. Ha ha ha!! I know I opened the door for alot of slick jokes. Let me also say this, If I want to change it (my color fill color) I will. That means going back to blk/white.

I went to Michaels craft store and bought some materials. It started out looking ****ed up but by the time I cleaned it up, it looking like it was done professionally. Here are some pics of my work. Have any of you done does this to your lower? I would like to know that I am not the only one to do this.
    While you were at Michaels you should have picked up some plastic rhinestones too. If you are going to paint your AR you might as well do it up all the way and go with the bedazzled look.

    Yep. An attempt at humor, but in all honesty, it's YOUR rifle and you can do whatever you want. If you like it that's all that matters. Enjoy it.

    Coloring in not my cup of tea, but at least the OP did a good job.

    I have seen a use for coloring on lowers. A company I've trained with colored the serial numbers on their training/loaner rifles for faster identification when inspecting and checking in and out.

    Find the nearest Resident Evil fanboy and tell them that your willing to make them an offer they can't refuse. Hand them a $100 and your lower, then start fresh.
