Default got bored, dressed up the bird-plate

Well i had some free time and nothing to do so i decided to mod my plate cover a bit. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pic but it gets the idea across. What do you guys think?

Did you buy the decal or make it yourself?

Did it myself. Had some scrap vinyl from another project of mine which was too small to use on anything else.

Here's another angle that shows the color more accurately. The vinyl really reflects the light differently given the angle like carbon fiber which is why the first pic looks a bit more silver/pewter.

Looks good

I did the same on mine years ago and it was a pain in the *** cause I had to trim each piece slightly smaller to get an outlined backlit effect





Topped it off with a good coat of clear and it was good to go until my mom backed into it with her PT Cruiser
