My emblems on the front have the thick clear coating as well, I'll take a pic this week.

Lets make one thing clear, just to be on the safe side; I do not have a fingernail polish fetish of any kind. I admit, it might look a bit like "fancy dancy paint" on the pic, but in fact it looks quite good! Especially with the clear finish over it...

This is what it is sold like in repro by the way.. Pretty fancy dancy!
