Sorry I wasn't trying to be critical, after rereading it I feel like I sounded like I was attacking you or something, but didn't mean for it to come off that way.

You've got one sweet looking boss man hopefully you're feeling more at home in this one!

@ OP Also let us know how the blue is holding up on yours over time, so far mine has held up (I used engine enamel to paint onto mine). Occasionally i get a little blue tint wipe off once in a while when I clean in the engine bay.

Nice job I'm painting mine white ( since my car is white) and I'll try to make the letters black

Would be nice to highlight the "Powered by Ford" in black!

+1 also the recessed stripes in black, but not chrome, at least not with the grabber.
