I just beamed him a payment thru Paypal.
After thinking it over, I decided to go with the MATTE BLACK letters! When I open up the hood, I want to send a message that I mean business! No Sissy Mary red fingernail polish look for me, going Sinister all the way!

Another Letter Update!
OK, the guy called me and said if any of the "shaker" people wanted 2 sets of letters (1 for the shaker, and 1 for the door) that he would give them the discount price of $20 per set ($40 total). If you order 1 set it is $24.95.
Make sure you tell him the color choices in the Pay Pal order.
I'm going to do the 2 sets... both Matte black.

I would have gotten those rims in the first place if I knew I was heading in the Mach 1 direction.

Shaker scoop emblem installation
Just installed my new '281' emblems on my Shaker scoop.
Bought them from Autobadges.com for $10 each.
I think they look rather nice!
There's different ways of installing decals and emblems, from the one eye method to the measuring tape; I used both.
Also, there's the question of how far forward (or back) should the emblem be on the scoop. The 69/70 Shaker scoops had their CID emblems near the front of the scoop opening and the center reserved for any script emblems (e.g. Cobra Jet). I placed the leading edge of the emblem even with the top center cooling fin/rib. As far as up and down, I just chose it to be closer to the lower half.
Here's how I installed them:
* Wipe the general area where the emblem is to be placed with alcohol.
* Lay down a strip of masking tape perpedicular to the center scoop rib line.
* Place the emblem's forward edge against the masking line using some tape to hold it in place. Up/down location as well as clocking (leveling) should be done at this point as well.
(This is where I spent most of my time scratching my head trying to decide how I wanted the emblem to be clocked. Follow the scoop line or true level? I did both and always stepped back to see how I liked it. What looked good to me was a combination of both.)
* Place another strip of masking tape (perpendicular) over the tape holding the emblem. This will ensure that the emblem will swing back down into the layout position with minimal shifting.
* Lift up the emblem just high enough to remove the 3M backing.
* Swing the emblem back down onto the scoop.
* Apply pressure evenly across the emblem to seat the tape.
Note: Once one side is complete, take some measurements at various spots and duplicate it for the other side to ensure a mirror image.
Emblem is made of plastic, so it can follow the slight contoured surface of the scoop. The corner edge may have a little trouble sticking, but I think once out in the sun and the adhesive heats up a bit you can press down on the corners to have them stick. That 3M tape that's used is some pretty strong stuff.
This simple and inexpesive mod really draws attention to the Shaker scoop (like it already didn't!
)
Once the Matte Black letters go on the shroud sills, it'll provide a nice reverse contrast to the 281 emblems. I think they'll look way cool together!

I just a acquired a CDC Classic Chin Spoiler! 
Mike is selling me his for $200 compared to the CDC price of $320 ($270 + $50 shipping). Not as good of a deal as Bill's, but I'll take it!
