The FRC looks fine but remove the sticker.

I'm not wild about the sticker but if you like it....it's fine. The only opinion that matters is yours! Good job.

If you like the design of the sticker, perhaps painting it on and making it larger would be something you should consider.

I've been thinking about doing the same thing. What did you cover the letters with? Paint job looks good.

Thanks for all the honest input. The jury is still out on the decal (picture). The forum is great. Such nice people.
FRC's were scrbbed with a good de greaser then painted with a special primer that promotes paint adhesion to plastic. Patiently applied coats of paint then 3 coats of clear coat.
