Yea you just need alot of patience and a steady hand to do it this way. I might get the silver rings for around the clocks off ebay and do them in red also.

Well if urs is pretty low mine must be really low at 66k. Lol. Ah they look pretty good. Bit too much tho. I only want the three rings. I think the rest is too much!
