Im going to use double sided tape on this panel only because it is temporary. When i get another gauge and use the other panel i made i'll use epoxy.

Nope. I made it myself.
Havok2 - Sorry, I didn't think to show that step in those pics I sent you. When it was smoothed over, I painted the surface silver. Then I put small vinyl letters on the silver and texture painted over it. When it was dry, I just pulled off the vinyl letters.
Turned out pretty good, I just wish the letters were just a little bit smaller.
