I’m right there with you. Went with bronze for mine to match the wheels. Just gotta find some time to put them on.
Looks good man...came out a bit cleaner than mine. If I were to redo it, I would try to get a cleaner look inside the letters by not getting the chrome color on the interior sides of the letters...
Either way, I think I'm going to stop being so picky and indecisive and just order the clear effex and 2k...

I do need to see if I have any other projects around that could use the 2k clear since it's a 48-hour can once you pop the mix...lol

I like the contrast, especially the eyes really brings them out. ive been thinking about doing something similar, did you tape it all off carefully and paint or are those decals?
It was all tape and spray....the only decals I would have used would have been my other concepts that I was considering with the Guts. Glory. Ram theme in kanji and symbols...

I used vinyl overlays for the letters, just taped off the background of the ram emblem. The rest I painted whole then ordered the overlays from Etsy.

How did you wet sand all those angles to get it that smooth?
