man that turned out real nice. I'm in the process of doing mine also. My V 8 cover is a pain in the azz! No pic's till its finished. But the letters are a pain as is the 3 lines that are below them. I'm using the paint ball bottle from Dup color. The little brush that comes with it is even worst to work it on small lines like mine. But I'm making it work so far. BUT it's a little at a time. Should be finished by Jan . L.M.A.O. How did you guys paint your letters PLEASE let me know if its some other then what I'm doing. Pictures would help if ya got them.

Rick I am either going to try touch-up paint and a brush or have a friend make me decals that i can lay over the lines, letters, and numbers. Luckily we have a full set of Lesonal toners at the shop so i can mix whatever color i want.

Default overlays

If you dont have a steady hand, like myself. Overlays are availible and look good. Around 45$ includes Stripes, and all lettering.
