They are nice! Especially the silk screen treatment! Never knew that could be done. I've always thought the decals look a bit tacky. I would still prefer paint vs powder coat for a more authentic look though me thinks.

I love the silk screen. I am totally fine with powder coat, especially on parts that will be handled at all. 

I saw a wagon at one of the Nationals (I think Boston) that had silkscreened instructions. I thought that was the greatest thing since sliced bread. I thought to myself that if they went to that much trouble on that, the car would not give up any other points. I was right.
