Semperfudge, how's you do the headlights? Wanna do mine.. Got any pics on that or links that could help? Also, I'm considering a hood badge with a blacked out grill, so your pics have helped me see what that could look like.. Cheers!

My thoughts on platidip.. Applications to be well considered beforehand (I know the stuff peels off, but 'waste not, want not', right?).. Stuff to be used in moderation... especially on a Mercedes..
