    Just a suggestion;

    you could try ICI Georgian Silver, about 17 coats in a low bake oven & it should look like the Rolls Royce it was meant to be on. :cool:

    you could go one better, cut a hole in the top & you'll have a convertible...very sought after. :)

    This is the closest I have found. I tried way too many different rattle cans.


    It's in the CF 29 FAQ
