Side Skirt Decal ?

I recently added a subtle Hamann decal to the side skirts of the Dangermobile. Any thoughts ?

regardless Johnny, your car will always look good even jacked-up a tree at 04:00AM.

The bloody car even look good in 1:14 size.....




(do let me know when you want me to stop)
Can you design and produce decals ?

That holographix does look pretty nice.

The one on the side skirt does interrupt a bit because of the air inlet thingy on it.

Original decal on side skirt looks great - nicely subtle. Prefer no decal over other suggestions so far.

If I know how picky danger is with his car, then the suggestion is no decal at all, over leaving it on where the little scoops are on the side skirt.

I've grown to like the Hamann decal. It's subtle and I think it adds a touch of distinction (at least I hope it does ).

You def have distinction with the danger mobile as it is one of the nicest and cleanest ones around. Not to mention that cool front side marker that virtually no one else has (jealous).
