    Aged / Patina'd REPRODUCTION orange-bar hood crest

    I did a few experiments on a reproduction orange bar hood crest. It's been flattened and aged. Anybody need it? My cost $50. Your cost $50 plus shipping. Please email me at stigsdad@gmail.com
    thanks!

    I flattened it using a patented Løtech tool: a piece of wood and my palm/fingers.

    It is a joke. I mashed it (carefully...) with my hands and a piece of wood to match the non-curvature of a real one.

    What did you do to age it? (if you don't mind me asking!). I have a repro one on one of my cars that doesn't look quite aged enough for my liking…
    Current:
    '73 S coupe LHD #1113 Ivory White, very original (currently for sale here: http://bit.ly/1C3JUJF)
    '73 S coupe LHD #1078 Sepia Brown, fully restored (also for sale, here: http://bit.ly/1vLRHUK)
    Previous:
    '73 S Coupe RHD, Reg. "HMY 7K", Light Yellow (sold 1995)
