Default FatBob - custom paint on the tank

OK, so I am looking into having the dent that is in my tank fixed, found a guy that will pull the dent out with rivits and re-paint the vivid gloss black tank... So I started thinking about doing a bit of custom work while I had it there... Thinking of removing the badge / letter-opener and getting "ghost" work done down the sides that say FatBob in an Old english type font... maybe three shades lighter with a bit of gray in the background.
what do you think? Think the lettering will work, or will it be too much.... I need to come up with a design or something to make it flow... I liked the lettering that was on the FatBob shirt ideas that I saw a way back on this site...hmmm..what to do - what to do..???
