Hehe, I know. I just relocated it at the same time after deleting AC so I didn't have a chance yet. The whole engine bay needs cleaning.

One thick strip of masking tape and then use an exacto knife to cut along the edge of the letters.

Looks great! Did you do any more prep work other than sand blast it? Did you clear it afterwards? Thanks.

All I did is in the pictures. I didn't want any clear coat stuff because I wanted the finish to match the valve covers.
