What?

I have this role of black vinyl about 4 inches wide. Its like really thick electrical tape. I found it in the tool box of the last truck i owned... I have no idea where you would buy some, but it worked to cover the lens...

How?

I used MS word to spell out HHR in an Arial Black font 110 size Italic... Centered it on the page and found a bowtie on google images, shrunk it to the size of the letters. and printed out taped over the covered lens and used an exacto knife to cut along the lines.. The "R" was the hardest part due to the curved lines...

total time start to finish was about an hour... I saved the word doc if anyone else would like to use it.. I'm just not sure how to post something like that on here.
