(Thinking out loud here) And, at $12.50 per, would a concours judge notice, given time constraints? Wouldn't put 'em on my CW car, but I'd sure but some for the "shelf". Never know - 15 years down the road, would anyone have the smarts to detect them? |

I look for the logo to ensure they are correct end up. The line is there also, but the logo is my method.
