After your hood crest is worn, the metal is dirty, etc., what's the best way to restore and shine it up without removing the metal finish and paint?

By $250-$300 the 2 on the left look like $300, the one on the right $250. Do research on pelican F/S section.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) My '67S still has it's OG badge... not crazy about having to drop $300 if it ever needed replacement. But I'd do it. Those look good... you'll have happy buyers. GLWTS. Patina examples: first one sold for $300. In my case the damaged badge is more than acceptable.   |
