Caution - Watch your fingers.
Upper radiator support.
First I painted the original to a nice red colour. Then painted the Caution Fan letters just like everyone else does. Now I ground the Caution Fan letters off to make smooth. Painted with some high heat engine black paint. Did not like that so wrapped in carbon fiber vinyl.
To finish it off I got an old style Caution Fan decal from the 70's.
I like the way it turned out.

Hello All,
Vinyl wrap is holding up fantastic. It was warm here today and heavy traffic on the drive home. Coolant Temperature went as high as 215. Popped the hood as soon as I got home and everything looked great. I will check in again at weeks end and let you know if any change.
