to stay on topic: I kind of like the carrera decals...but no for my car!....and the wingbats are to mch for a P-car.....but again look great on my dream car the "ugly" Ferrari! I love the Germans for making a daily "almost" exotic and making it look great...but I love the Italians for putting their passion for life and everything beautiful in cars!!
Did you have a good night?? HAHA

abso****inglutely. i lust over the 430 spyder. i'm just 250K short right now. anybody want to let me borrow it?

i would rather have the 430 spyder over just about anything on the road.

but i have to agree with iceman. even though i love the fcars, it might look funny copying them. maybe not... i don't know. it's been a while since i've seen that pic of the one car that did it.

i'm sure you'd get a lot of grief over it at car shows though.... i think i might try the side decals. i'm going to call targa today. he lives about an hour from me. if i don't like it, they always peel off

If I go for the shields, you guys will be the first to know.

Yes it is! The vinyl crest came up in this topic so I made one to see what it would look like. I don't think it looks bad, but its definitely a ferrari thing.

The R is definitely off on that side. That was the side i did with a wet application so it slid around a bit and it was in a bad location for the door seam.

Deputy Dogg came by today and we put his on. It looks AWESOME!! now i want a yellow 996 and the supercharger. He's a really great guy to work with.

Pics to come....

I really like the Yellow/black contrast. The black car will look so much better with black wheels

You should try and make some decals that continue and taper of lilke the GT3 996RS or 997RS .

wow sandoval, i wasnt sure how the solid black stripe extensions would look, but after seeing that one, it looks great! Im limited to solid colors on since i only have a vinyl plotter now. I'd be untouchable with a printer/plotter .

Next thing I'll do is make that gt3 RS one and put those on ebay as well. Some hits I got from ebay request the older style as well, which Ill also have to make. I want to make a cayman one before anyone else comes out with it, but I have to see what adjustments i'll have to make for that edge on the side of those cars. I was really pleased with how Deputy's turned out.

As for my wheels, they definitely need to be black in the center. I like my silver decal, but the silver wheels make it look like theres too much silver on the car. I'll have to see if i can get my BSA's trimmed over at alex job's before i think about painting them.

You think that next time you could find a different spot to take photos then the ones you use in your everyday line of work.. Looking at that Pic I'm just waiting for all the unmarked cars to speed into the photo and the chopper to land...

haha, yeah. the closest place that would have been nice enough would have added about 40 minutes to ddogs time to go back home though. there's nowhere thats really nice in this town.

I'm torn. One side says, "I really like 'em." The other says, "They look like they say Camero." ...or maybe that's why I like them! LOL

I think the GT3 RS type would look better but with just 911 or 996 so as not to be "posing".
