John and I beat the USPS by just meeting near his place. I was driving thru and he generously got up early to meet up at the gas station right by the highway! Only regret is not having more time to chat but look forward to a future ZR-1 meet!

Looks great! Did you prep and paint it yourself? I found I had to 400 sand mine and add some glazing putty to even out texture from the printer, then I 2k Primed it and sanded again. It was worth it overall, I am leaving mine one color although I was temped to make the letters black.

Hi, I listed how I did it above. The plates ARE NOT ready to paint when you get them. The printer puts little groves and swirls in them. You MUST take fine glazing putty over them , sand the, down with 400 dry, then 400 wet. I used high build 2k primer, twice, wet sanding in between, then used shop primer, then did two light coats of Axalta Base, and 2 coats Axalta clear. Definitely requires good material to paint.
