If it's not too late, I'd love to see how you made that shifter.

Just since you asked so nicely.

Great Decaling!

Thanks. Took me a while to round up a satisfactory selection. To my eye they're all too big by at least 25%, but they're what I had to work with. The /MP and 714 number are hand-painted. I found the trick to this is to slop some white paint on in the general area, then trim away everything that doesn't look like a letter or number with the tip of a toothpick. Works great on bare plastic or "chrome," on painted plastic, prolly not so much.

Well, it's finished, at long last, and photographed. I had no idea this "quick, simple model" would take so many hours to finish. Now on to something with a shiny finish!
