Wow! Nice!!

[mohrgan]

Mike, Did you do that yourself? That looks fantastic! I have one that has a little bend in it and am afraid if I try to straighten it the enamel will break.

Yes, I have been doing a few including the little 356 baby badge too. It is likely that your enamel will break with straightening but it's all restorable. Here are two more of mine heading back across the pond to the US as we speak. They were both left with patina rather than fully restored as per the owners wishes. The 'distressed' look I call it. I can also do 'full bling'.

Those two started out like this,

Lovely work Mike. Your car deserves it. You and I must stop doing this and get back to playing more golf!
