My Competition Orange V8

[croyde]

Hey you lot. Stop hijacking my thread with talk of K braces and stuff, lol.
Here is a reminder of what the subject is, My Competition Orange V8!!

Gorgeous. Same as mine, when I get it, bar the black roof.

Is the plate tape enough to keep it on even though it's under tension through the bend?

Cool, good stuff!

Yes tape does fine. I am still unsure of what to do with front plate. I am looking at getting a show and stow bracket for the States and mounting a square plate just under the bumper.....or I may just leave it as it is.

Hope to get some stripes added tomorrow.
Pics will be posted.

Genuine thoughts please
I am happy with side stripes but not so sure about bonnet

I do intend trimming the back of the side graphic btw (similar to the front)

I like both but will probably be only doing the side stripes (similar to yours when I get my convertible in June). A least I finally had a drive in a V8 fastback this afternoon so a bit happier now!

Looks nice,
Where u get side stripe?

Looks good mate, very tasteful! Works well with the colour scheme. Agree about taking a bit off the back of the side stripes. I like the bonnet, looks good but maybe it's that the stripe finishes quite high up? Nice to see something a little different! good work

Just went to a vehicle graphics company and told them what I wanted

I spent ages thinking about it and decided I wanted it to finish level with the bonnet creases. I love the side stripes and very happy with them. Just not sure about bonnet.

I will post better pics when they are trim up and once they are polished and buffed.

Was too cold yesterday

Love the bonnet stripe - never seen one exactly like it.
I won't be having side stripes but I think everything black looks great on CO.

Cool, would love to know what it looks like from the inside actually if you can get a decent photo

Will do tomorrow mate. Off to Goodwood Sunday Service (breakfast club) so should get some nice pics with other cool cars around.

hopefully meeting a guy with a 67 fastback

The bonnet strip I think is a bit much especially with the black roof . The side strips looks ok but I think the pony looks very cheap just my opinion

Looks good! I am partial to orange myself. Your car is almost identical to mine, except I have recaros, and the steering wheel is on the other side...

I like the stripes. I added a boss 302-style hood stripe on mine.
