All this vanity tag talk..
...Made me go get one for my SS. It has more to do with my job than the car since I work with molten steel.

The reason that the letters are filled in is because the previous owner of the car must have hit something and they patched the fiberglass and just filled in the letters. I discovered all this when I painted it gloss black for the berger mod.
If you want to trade I'll do it, but I wouldnt recomend it

I sanded the panel with some 320 grit really making sure the letter indentions got thoroughly scuffed. Applied some bondo, sanded, applied another coat of bondo, sanded, filled any small pits with some glaze/spot putty, sanded until surface was smooth and level. Sprayed some filler primer, sanded with some 800 grit then applied a couple coats of semigloss paint. Let dry overnight to be handled for reinstallation. All rattle cans and other products used bought from Wal-Mart.
