Default Disappointed
I was going to put on the 60'-61' tank emblems until I noticed the right side front tip touching the paint, the left side looks like crap too . The front touches the paint, the rear sit well off the paint and top to bottom has a big gap. Anyone else have problems with this type. I may just go with some Night Train emblems.

Your new 6 gallon tank has a different shape than the 3 1/2 gallon ones those emblems came off of!

Yes, it is a larger tank but I've seen them on 08's and 09's and was wondering if others had problems and what they did to fix it.
I was thinking these maybe too.
