Thanks for all the comments. They weren't really a pain just very tedious. I wanted something custom but simple, nothing too flashy. I'm pleased with it. Now that I've done it and have some vinyl left over the question is whats next. Any ideas welcome

looks like something I would put in my room to showcase.. but not something I would have on my rear deck mat. it's really creative and I'm sure it was time consuming ...but I wouldn't keep it in my car... I would maybe make a rear deck mat out of vinyl and have that on top ..

I don't plan on keeping it in there just when I go to shows. I thought about doing a vinyl deck mat but I wanted the contrast. Thanks for the input.

As far as the purpose. Its something different, most that have responded like it, and its something that the car next to me at a show probably won't have. I'm not real big on flashy, I like a close to stock look. I thought this was suttle enough to look good but not be too much.
