Had no intention of stickering up yesterday, especially having spent at least a couple of hours detailing the car.

Around 6pm I thought I'd just try the two little stickers to have a go and see how hard it was:



Goodyear stickers were a little fiddly, but not too bad. I may as well give one of the bigger ones a go while I'm at it:



In for a penny...having started in the sun light, I finished under street light just after 10pm, having had about a 15 minute break for food. Dan's job is most definitely safe laugh



And here she is this morning, big thanks to Dan at stickeredup4lemans. I am over the moon with it.

Ok that’s explains it! Stickers can’t normally be applied upside down anyway so presumed it was intentional.

Haha yes, I figured I'm going to get a few queries over it!

Should probably have put the photo up with the original post for context beer

Did you take the RR last time? If so, what stickers did you go for?

Going for the first time this year!
Will be taking the 911 so will probably stick to the default Martini stripe but not sure if it will work on an Aqua Blue car?

I'm sure it'll be fine. Our first trip was in a grey 996 and we applied (sorry I did) the Martini stripes and door roundels, including taking off the bonnet badge and number plate plinth to do the stripes (though it was a Targa so we didn't do the roof and stopped at the top of the bonnet). Preparation of the car is the key and take your time - there is plenty written on the forum as to the best way to do it, and also to remove them afterwards.

Nope, 1st time taking the RR. Had a TVR last time I went to Le Mans so that was a bit louder!

Mental, love it.

Although as 1432 said, might want to check your front number plate is correct?

That Alfa, whichis clearly a GT paperbag, is looking gorgeous as well. I want to see the finished shot!

Hey morgs_ do you mean my Alfa GT? wink

I've just got a few large stickers left to apply, so hoping for a sunny weekend, and a steady hand...
