Also, how did you mask or re-expose the exposed aluminum portions like
the stripes and Ferrari script?

It looks very professional from the photos.

Hi George,
    I love to hear about listers who dive in and fix their cars

BTW, where'd you find Red wrinkle paint?  I got good  using black when I
did my MGB dash (after 3 tries) ;-) - I'm a big fan of wrinkle paint.

TIA -
LarryT
