I'm not a big fan of air brush anything but I think it looks very cool. If you didn't have the TT to back it up then it would be a different story. Also a drop shadow on the font would be nice.

That looks great. I have been looking to have my engine cover/battery/brake cover painted red gloss but the one body shop I found in the East Coast was charging $400. Lucky you. Im still searching for someone to do it for less.

Enjoy.

Nice! I'd agree that it'll probably look better with some text shadowing.

But, the "GREDDY" doesn't have any shadowing....nor does the "TWIN TURBO"


(edit) OH but you mean on the original... yeah, shadowing would've fit the theme a little better, but I think it looks great the way it is.
