Noice...

If anything, make the ZZR's on the bonnet bigger, or put more with them to balance out the graphics to the writing (just IMO obviously!)

how did you go about that?

Did you stick it on then trim it, or cut it first - and if cutting before sticking how did you get the dimesions right?

I think it looks great.

I cut pieces of vinyl bigger than required and then put and thin vinyl masking tape to get the shape and carefully trimmed to the edge of the masking tape with a scapel and removed the waste. I found that vinyl is so forgiving, just when you think you have cocked it up by persisting it comes right. By careful application of heat from the wifes hairdryer (must put it back before she realises) The vinyl will shrink back to its origial shape. Fantastic stuff. The whole lot cost about £30. If you muck up just heat and pull it off.

Looks Wicked!





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

Got to go with everyone else on this one, its looks mint,

one question though, why the shell logo when you could have had a BP Helios?
