Default Finally Modified the DODD Letters to Say FORD

I've had this grille a while and didn't get around to properly modifying these DODD Letters to Say FORD (like a few others have done). It wasn't all that bad but was definitely time consuming. The F letter was the hardest since it only attaches on the left side. The R was easier since it has two attachment points after you cut. I used bondo, 2 part epoxy, and some fiberglass cloth. Here's how it turned out. Not the best pics but you get the idea.

looks pretty good, hopefully you don't mind some constructive criticism... I think you should have made the "notch" on the right side of the R a little deeper/bigger, it's almost invisiable. other than that, awesome job, really wish I had this grill.
