Looks good. He did a good job with my orange one.Replaced the OEM safety placard with a dash plate and the OEM plastic shifter plate with powder coated aluminum versions from forum vendor 10-80 Dirt Sports.
I believe mine are the first done in the 2023 lighter blue (our best guess at matching the MAT KYANITE BLUE). Not perfect but not bad, either.
Thanks, @highpocket74.

Let me know how you like the shifter plate. I drove a stock one the other day and that was horrible after using my for 2 years.Replaced the OEM safety placard with a dash plate and the OEM plastic shifter plate with powder coated aluminum versions, both from forum vendor 10-80 Dirt Sports.

Well, I don't have many miles on a Talon with a stock plate, so I won't have much to compare it to.Let me know how you like the shifter plate. I drove a stock one the other day and that was horrible after using my for 2 years.
I’ll have to ask the painters about that.Well, I don't have many miles on a Talon with a stock plate, so I won't have much to compare it to.
I was a bit surprised at how easily the powder coat scratched on that shifter plate. I had a few bits and pieces of aluminum laying on the shifter plate (from drilling holes in the aluminum angle I fabricated for the overhead fan installs), I *lightly* brushed them away with a cloth, and it scratched the plate. Meh. I'm sure it will see more than that but was hoping it was more durable.
Thats why I got the black. Im afraid what the orange will do or Id get one. But that blue sure looks goodWell, I don't have many miles on a Talon with a stock plate, so I won't have much to compare it to.

Fixed it for ya! 🤣Thought I was going to install the Trail Armor mud holders on the Talon this AM.
