    sent you a pm bigblock. got the material and will probably ship it to you. one thing im worried about. since it is just foam board, how do you strengthen the inside of the "P" and "G" etc in gtp? looks like it would get really flimsy.

    The two that I did seem to be pretty sturdy once the fabric material is glued onto them. For a little more insurance, could always put on a piece of folded masking tape in between (basically a double sided tape effect) to offer a little more security

    First off, would like to thank JarHead for chiming in on the questions. I never thought of using Velcro because of the possibility of it pulling from the foam board. You could try it, but please don't hold me responsible if the foam board was to rip.
    yeah, i didnt think of the board if you tried to take it off. you could if you did it slowly... as far as it holding the board up, double sided velco is pretty stong. i have some holding my 2 gauge pod and 2 gauges in place. its strong and takes a good amount of pulling to take it off.

    The two that I did seem to be pretty sturdy once the fabric material is glued onto them. For a little more insurance, could always put on a piece of folded masking tape in between (basically a double sided tape effect) to offer a little more security
    yeah, i was wondering that myself. the letters there looked flimsy. I thought you might have taken some tape or glue and glued them down. if it were my trunk lid, i would secure those parts of the letters.

    I have taken my board off at least a 1/2 dozen times with no issues, but I've been quite careful when doing it. It regards to the "P" and "G", I need to stop by staples tonight and I'll see what they offer that I can use.

    Silver is looking for a theme panel to match art work under his hood as well as have it back lit with LED's
    boy, and i thought i was picky...yet again, silver (ryan) is the guy who washed his car at the Branson meet when the thing looked like it had just been washed..i think it had a couple bugs on the front or something
