That would be my problem. Getting all those letters straight. I'm not what I used to be...LOL....They could look straight to me, to everyone else.......not so much.
Hello everyone. I too added the Bentley Name on mine. It installs in one continuous strip. Very simple to layout the script. I used a tape measure and painters tape and level. I think it realy enhanced the Trunk and calls attention to the Car. I paid $85.00 on Ebay

The crystals look great. That would take some time and patients. Do they light up visibly when the clock dash lights are on?

The clock modification makes it worth the effort and time spent. It's all about enjoying the Bentley. Original is great for those people that want originality, but I too like to create different Benchmarks and call it my own needs. Keep informing us of your progress. I have been enjoying seeing your thoughts completed.

Greetings Mr. Rico!

Clock looks spectacular! I agree with Ron. I am very much looking forward to seeing how these exhaust tips turn out.

You sir, are one creative member!

And Mr. Roman - I have those Bentley letters in my shopping cart...just hemming/hawing pulling trigger.

Hello My Friend Steve (Bwings) thank you its goes look different, yah I had them made to size & spec just waiting for them to arrive. Some work to do on fabrication should be a nice little job to do keep me occupied. Yes you should go for it & order the Bentley logo it looks great ...
Im off to London in the morning just for a day back around midnight ...

Hello Rico!

You must be planning on modifying the rear diffuser panel? I am purchasing a used one BC I want to make it black (against my Tempest Gray paint) to match black wheels and blacked out SS trim. I don't want to modify the original, just keep it for eventual return to the car when I tire of the black look....(probably never, but...).

Well, enjoy London...I'm sure you will!

Hola ... No I'm not changing the rear as its part of the ONYX design & its all carbon fibre just the exhaust tips at the moment they are square chrome, got fedup with that design so came up with my own, I'll post some pics before & after once I've sorted it.
Wow that should look cool once done, I'm sure you'll be pleased with the results, yah London is fun if I come across any interesting cars I'll post um up ...

Hey Mr. Roman,

Question on positioning of the letters. Did you choose the horizontal location or did you follow some specs? I can see the left/right centering but what dim did you use for up/down?

Thanks buddy......

Here you go Rico. Adams. This is on Ebay I though it might interest you. 1x Auto Car SUV Decorative Silver Accessories Button Start Switch Diamond Ring. There are several vendors selling different sizes and colors of the Diamonds. This would add a little more "Bling". It sells for .99cents U.S free shipping.
