Did you end up using the 718 piece or did it not work out. Hard to tell from the picture.

No unfortunately it was too brittle to fit against the curvature of the wing. I ended up.breaking it. So I ordered letters to replicate it. The wing is curved horizontally and vertically so the stencil that came with the letters was useless. I wish it was perfect but Im gonna leave for awhile.

A template for the duck tail curvature? Its curved side to side and up and down. The deck lid template won't work, they came with one.
