From where did you source the side decals?
Thank you.

Wow your good at that. I'm thinking the silver. Just a little lighter to match my wheels 👌

that's the thing - the black on red is pretty 'contrasty' (if that is a word); grey or gold are less aggressive but still get the message across. i like how on the newer boxsters they would 'ghost' stripes onto the cars - matt black on gloss black, matt grey on silver, light grey on white, etc. - wonder if possible on red?

Usually not a gold fan on cars, but I think your on to something. The pinstripe really makes the emblem pop. Maybe not the entire hood in grey, but a couple 6"-8" grey stripes (to match wheels) with gold pinstripes. To tie-in, how about gold lugs on the wheels? I forget, but do you have the gold emblems on wheels? Maybe even a red pinstripe on the outer wheel edge?

I'm thinking too much silver too. Adjusting a little. Of course I didnt fill in the silver areas but they would be solid silver.

haha JB, you change the designs faster than I can photoshop them.
I guess my picture is already outdated...

In theory and PhotoShop the double silver stripes looked good but once I started putting them on they just looked weird. Just too much 😐
Had the wrap so I'm going to finish this all the way back and when I get tired of it Ill just take it off.
Be glad when spring gets here 🙄
