Some more upgrades done in wood was the European Trunk and Inlay license plate.
I was asked if things like this can be done on other vehicles and the answer is absolutely. I use either Vectric’s Aspire, Rhino 6, and ZBrush to do the modeling and then use Aspire to create toolpathe for the CNC and/or vectors to run with the Laser Engraver and/or 3D Printer. Of course I have a shop full of other toys (equipment) I also use.

Thanks everybody for the compliments.
I posted this years ago in the Vectric Forum, but it was all my design. As I keep posting my projects I’ve done over the years, I will give credit if I used their design and/or 3D download, or tell you where I got the idea.

Gary, that trunk is gorgeously done sir and really sets off what looks like one beautifully restored Ford.
The front “Number Plate” as we call them downunder just makes it better, very well done.
