Different type of Oldsmobile project

I thought I would share this since I thought it turned out kind of cool. I found a old Oldsmobile window decal that I got years ago in my basement, and knew I wasn't going to put it on anything, so I thought before it turned to dust, I should do something with it. So after a trip to Lowes for a wall mirror and a trip to Car Quest for some automotive paint, I came up with this.


First I laid down the Olds decal, and put down the first two colors

Here it is with all the paint down on it. Looks just like the door panel on my car.

After about a hour of peeling the decal off exposing the mirror under the paint.

The finished project. Turned out kind of neat
