Installed my new rear tail lights from Spoke today . My girlfriend saw these in Jerry's car at the WCR in June and really liked them so this was my birthday present.

Doing layout and noticed the bosses on the back of the emblem were longer than I thought. The thought of a washer didn't work for me, no matter what that would be all I'd see from the outside.

I had kept the holes in the grill snug on the bosses so I made these from 1/4" sweat on caps for 1/4' copper water pipe.

I will paint them with the same paint I do the grill materal in.

They pretty much disappear from the outside view.

Drove it 370 miles for a fall foliage tour with the cnypca. 120 miles to get to the start and 250 for the tour (which ended near my home).

I was the only 914, of course, but sadly I was also the only air-cooled.

There were 20 cars at the start and probably 25 at the end.

Pulled the bursch exhaust off, cleaned it all off with a wire wheel, painted it with a 2000 degree black paint, and reinstalled it with new gaskets.

Heat shows through but no damage.
Very happy this worked for the finish I wanted.
