actually it was too hard to polish around the letters, so i decided to paint where the letters were. then tried to blend the paint into the polished part, but if you've ever tried to wet sand spraypaint, you know it does'nt give the best results. so i ended up w/ what you've seen.
ABSOLUTELY did not try to make it look like a dohc..... i'm proud of the mini-me in my 90' DX rex
