Here is a pic of the decal:

And maybe the upper engine mount was cracked before the conversion... see the lower mount.
Looks equal to the one from englishstiv:

just an attempt to translate the German part of Joking's reply.

At an material where the powder is applied by electrostatic proces and is melted on the material by an external heat source it is not sure that the coat is free of any porosity as due to the different thickness of the base material the heat capacity varies and therefore the proper bonding of the melted coat is not assured as the powder applied is not completely melted on thicker parts. originally this process is developed for wire applications where the thickness of materials show no variation. further ask your powder coating company or the powders applied are suitable for out door conditions and 70 % will step out. what remains are the extremely expensive ones.
