Now you can see me Revisited
I was not happy with the original lettering color, there was not enough contrast to be able to see it in daylight unless in direct sun. And not at all at night. So I went back to the sign company and the made me another set of letters exactly the same size, font and register but on black reflective. I set the new ones just a little above and to the left of the bronze letters. Just off register so I had a drop shadow. There is a nice shadow effect in day light and it really shows up at night. Here are the results...

VERY NICE !!
I Googled to try to get some idea of pricing. Is this considered vinyl lettering? or better yet just give me an idea what each set cost (original and reflective)

VanMan, the original cost was 30.00 and that was for the bronze color logo and the MOC#s. The black reflective was another 25.00. Most sign companies do vinyl and if you get one have them explain how to install them properly. Also ask them for a squeegee, it isn't like the window ones, it is a piece of semi-hard plastic that you use to rub the vinyl letters down with. I used to work at a sign company and did thousands of them over the years so it was a piece of cake. If you want to see the MOC#s go back a week or two and look for my first post on this subject. here is the link http://www.montanaowners.com/forums/...ad.php?t=25688. I might go get black reflective for them too.. Dave and Betsy

I'm surprised - I would have thought you had a bunch of $$$ in those since they look so good. Maybe next you should illuminate it - maybe change out that light on the back of the TV cab to a spotlight and point it at the cap!!
