    Ive begun my temporary paint job and am trying out some lettering. Would like to know what everyone thinks. Not that Im basing what Im going to do on others opinions, but am always open to ways that make it better.

    It surprised me, but the righthand cover has had 6 coats of clearcoat on it and the reason its darker is the flash on my camera kept washing out the pic from the reflection....had to take it at a steeper angle.

    The paint looks good. I don't really like badges so my opinion would be to forego the lettering. That font makes me think it should have the word "Mad" included.

    The Paint Job looks Great!
    The style of the lettering doesn't appeal to me all that much.

    Can you change the lettering to something in a "Script" or are you limited to what you've shown us?
