Thanks for the feedback Lokiel

Perhaps a thin gold line underneath your writing / words?...

*I wish I could photoshop as my vinyl stripe is still sitting in the garage.

I like the look of Neil's as it is. The alternative look is more of a race/sports car thing harking back to a more classic look. The style Neil has is obviously more understated, elegant and fitting with his style with his car. Play around in PS by all means but I suspect it will look best as it is. Can't wait to see this in person again with the new look.

Let me know if you need a hand. Mine sat around for 6 months before I finally got off my arse and put them on. I'm loving the look but if I was doing it again there's a few things to do to make the job easier.

The side-lettering isn't "strong/loud enough", I think you should add some vinyl gold side-stripes similar to this, but replace "MAZDA" with your existing text, it would tie in beautifully with your rims: Lokiel

I would hazard a guess that Neil has never entertained the thought of stripes nor strong or loud for that matter, the look is understated and as such is 'Classically Elegant' it shows style rather than fashion. Style is timeless and something that a gentleman should aspire to.

Gregory, Well spoken and eloquently.

Gentlemen, please remember that i have a 27' vinyl cutter and if I have sufficient interest (and if you provide your vinyl choice) I'll renew the the license on my cutting software and do large scale cuts, but only for the Gentlemen amongst us. MAX size is 740mm x 6m

Quick photo shoot at the end of the detailing day (Everyone had gone home except Hayden and I).
It proves that even a piece of sh*t hard top can look good with good lighting

shows that even a good photographer can make a terrible looking car look decent.

the hardtop really does look horrible, argg. I need to get that sorted asap.
