        The skinny ones do look a bit odd to me. Mark VI had a skinny ornament too.

          but all mark VI emblems are skinny, so it flows right

                            Sweet. I think I will have to do this as well since I already have the water pump pulley off the car. Did you have to remove the water pump pulley to get to some of the bolts for the compressor bracket?


                            Is that hammered finish paint?


                            EDIT: I see the pulley still on the car without the bracket so that answers that.

                                Ahh. I have another question...What did you use (brush and product wise) to clean up the smog pump, compressor etc?
