very nicely done. So howd you go about doing it. I think i would have gone with the polished lettering but thats just me. Still really good job.

thanks, i wasnt a real big fan of the polished letters. I saw the black ones once on a different car and i loved it. I ended up going with some high heat pain and a paintbrush the size of a pen tip and went at it. i'll have it on the car tomorrow so pics then...

i like it without... i think the gloss on the cover is too much.

Yeah it looks really glossy in the picture but in person it doesn't look that bad....just my opinion, haven't decided whether I'm going to leave it on or off yet.
