I wanted to and I didn't want to...it had to be just right...Industrial and looked like it was metal...here is what I came up with.

If you look closely, the little spots are the tops of bolts for the look of steel girders ect.

I might for fun make a fuel door cover decal with a ring around the door with the same look. I think a 4X4 decal would also look good with this setup. It is basically 4 layers of vinyl...two layers for shading for the text and two layers for shading for the bolt heads.

I think they are meant to cause a transition from laminar to turbulent flow, helping to breakup the pressure drag caused behind the Jeep.

Kinda like the dimples on the golfball.

Seriously... I haven't had 7-digit dialing since 1992 :) (although I think I live in the largest "local calling area" in the country)

This is basically what they do...I think the optimum would be to add one more to each side for a total of 13 (I have 11)
