Finally got myself a new tailgate at the weekend,spent the day yesterday painting it and masking and painting the letters.
One thing I did notice was the re-pops lettering isn't quite as crisp a stamping,making them look a little 'chubby'.

I'll employ the services of a pinstriper to highlight the letters eventually.
I also need to sort out chains and latches so it's bolted shut at the moment.
