Araf, when you removed your decals did it leave any marks?
No, but the roof took ages to strip, as it was cold. Professionals will use a plastic blade and a heat gun. I used my finger nails and a hair dryer (as I didn't want to burn the paint). Once it was all off, I wiped it over with methylated spirits, to get rid of the few tiny patches of adhesive (where I was trying to pick up the vinyl edges).
Bah! You've done what I wanna do, including anthracite alloys 
Goldie, you're a psychic copycat mate
Bravo for having the guts to actually do this, trying to get the courage together to do something along the same lines, although I wanna go with some werewolf / horror graphics personally.
How much did it all cost and where'd you get it done? It does looks a top job!

you really need to give it a good claybar, clean, wash and wax!
Will be doing that in January to February time
I wanted to prep the beemer for Saturday but the weather is too s
te, I did it back in August and it looked brilliant, then went to france and hit 2billion flies/bugs, took it to a jet wash and the bloody wax dried on the paint 
I think it looks ghastly, ruins the car. I hope it can be removed easily and will not be forced on future owners.
Reminds me of a Monaro similarly suffering with a fish's head on the side of it. The thread was why can't I sell the car...
The thread was pulled and I never heard (or saw) it again.

its all down to taste, in my opinion I don't want the law to give me a second look so stealth (black with matt black nose) is best for me
Still I just doubled the value of my car... I filled it up with petrol!
Seriously, if you did that to your car where I have to park sometimes you would come back to find your car had attracted too much attention!
