Battery cover bling...... This was "borrowed" from "BernieBlackBird" from the other board.....the stock Red plastic color was too much to look at, 3 coats of NBM and 3 coats of clear. The lettering is not perfect, it's a pain in the *** to get it looking like a real decal, but it turned out good enough for me, and at a total of $25 for all of it......you can't beat it.....

But i wouldn't have done it for two reasons: 1. the chrome wouldn't have looked as good on Pewter as it does on NBM 2. I hate to advertise for someone if I can help it (the Mobil 1 plaque was an exception
)You car is coming along very nicely!
