Re: [DML] Front Grill

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxx>]

Never really paid any attention to my front emblem (been too busy at
other end of the car), so went outside with a left handed flashlight
to introduce myself. Is indeed grained on flat surfaces -- sandpaper
would probably be OK. Beveled edges might be a problem (appear bright
finish), but those could be a challenge any way you paint. Guess I'm
too used to chromed pot metal emblems so common at turn of the decade
(which sometimes look better WITHOUT black mask. My Lincolns have a
couple of those). 

How about letters on late model hoods -- are they grained or bright
finish?

PS: This has nothing to do with emblems, but couple of days ago
checked out X-Rays of my shoulder from ER (didn't know you could do
that -- too cool). Uploaded one to #5939's photo page. Will only leave
it over the weekend to conserve server space, but this is why I
currently wish my D was an automatic. In theory am back to shifting
gears by June...
