I promised I wouldn't spill, so I won't.

Anyways, It took 2 hours for each and I clear-coated them when I was done. Baked the clear in the clothes dryer. I'm still curious to see how the enamel I chose holds up in the sun. No bigee, though. I could strip 'em and do 'em over if I had to.

Note: Last time I talked to Daniel, he said he'd never paint an emblem again. Now I know why. $ vs. time would make a businessman broke!

Green was inspired by dash lights inside, pattern was inspired by 69 gurney/yarborough cyclone. Gotta be different!
