grill emblem restomod
just to give the 1st gen owners an idea since I retired my Trekker a few years ago
so a week or so ago I found the grill emblem from my 81 Trekker in the garage. Looked at it thinking it would look cool on the 94's grill but the emblem was looking a little bit worse for wear. decided to give it a shot at a sort of restomod to bring some life back into it.
I lightly sanded it with some 320 and 400 grit sand paper. I tried using some rustoleum chrome like paint...it didn't work very well so ended up using a liquid chrome paint pen my wife had stashed.
last pic shows a comparison between the final product and what i started out with.
It's far from perfect but will be fine sitting on a monstalined grill.
