Well done.

Will it still be at Tuthills on Saturday for DDk visitors to see?

it will be yes, might even be a small chance I can call in and have a cup of tea with fellow DDKers now

either way welcome to have a good look and see what you think. the time for snagging is before I pay a large bill

Poor mans Singer or bespoke retro cool?

Am not sure myself yet but think I might keep the side decals and just do standard metal letters on the engine lid.. Mulling it over

Love the car, but if I'm being honest the red parts of the graphics do nothing for me

I'd go for the lighter colour for the lettering as well as the stripe. It complements the other silver elements on the car.

I was down there while the guys were doing the graphics today.

The red on the engine cover looks a bit difficult from straight on, but seen from the side it is less challenging. Need to see it in daylight.

I think it looks very sweet with nothing at all. Just ask "what would Steve do?"

A pastel orange would be better.

Great looking car Dan but i think I would bin the red colour graphics. I think they would look far classier all in Grey, there's just to much red going on at the back.
Car looks the absolute business though wish it was mine.

Personally, would remove all the decals.
Car like does not need any!
IMHO...

Your car is the dogs nuts, but my 2 pennerth would be metal porsche letters on engine lid only and rest of car just plain uncluttered "CLASS".........................mark

I like it Dan...…..if you are not sure why not ask Mr Jury to pen a few options?

Cheers,

Looking good Dan

I'd be tempted towards 'subtle invisibility' by using a black Porsche script.

Do whatever the hell YOU like. Its your car and you're the one looking at it everyday...

Decals can be changed regularly at little cost if you ever do want to change its look.
