Will an Essex Wire stripe package be available? I'd be interested.

Hi Don - see the Scuderia F badge and let me know if this was what you were looking for.
Chris - I've got lots of personal experience I can share with you regarding the Essex theme - been there, done that so see attached for a guide. The nostril inserts in Black are pretty hard to decal due to the shape. I painted all of the graphics for my MDA Essex theme and used the paint mask for most of the job, it works well and saves a lot of tape time.
I have all of the dimensions for that scheme should you need them, let me know.
Thanks!
Chris

Just a heads-up to let you guys know that I have the Gulf type decals up on the Raceline site and the rest will be up before the end of the weekend. Again, these are not your typical peel & stick type but a premium decal that will last and look great for a very long time.
I cut a trial decal and it looks really good, passes my critical eye anyway. I will let you know when the next batch go up.
Surf's up - enjoy!

There's more on the way guys and I'm sure you'll be very happy with the quality of these decals.
The rest go live by Monday.
Many thanks!

As promised, I've got all but the centre stripes and Mk II / IV side stripes left to upload, they will be ready tomorrow. If anyone has placed an order and wants more, I can save you the trouble of having to place another by emailing me with what you want and I will modify your existing order.
Just a heads-up.

Chris,
Have you loaded the center stripes yet? I am very interested. The sill stripes I bought from you were perfect!!

Hi Ron,
I've been beat up with a brutal cold this week so I will have the rest of the centre and side stripes up this weekend for sure.
The response has been overwhelming as I have GT40, Cobra and other vintage car owners snapping these up - I guess people have been looking for this type of product for a while now.
I'll add more as I go and will give you a heads-up over the weekend to when the stripes are uploaded.
Thanks for your patience-

Hi Ron,
The centre stripes are up, they are all based on what I have found on the original cars, I can do others, just let me know.
Last post for these so I hope it's remembered for others down the line. Thanks for the kind words, it's been fun designing these!
Enjoy-

Hi Bill,
Take a picture of the existing decals and email it to me so I can see what you're after. I can do basically anything so just let me know. Are you referring to the long wheel arch badge?

What should I do in vinyl and what should I paint? How thick is the material? I was thinking about painting the rondials and stripes and using the stickers on the rest. My concern is that I would like my red car striped with white with a black border. I don't know how my painter is going to paint the black 3/16 pinstripe? He is a talented painter as far as smooth and shiny but I don't know about the stripes. Chris, do you have any suggestions? Maybe you could provide the 3m masking for my stripes and stickers for the rest? How long should the paint cure before I apply the stickers?
Thanks a lot, you are a true artist!
Here is what I am going for!

Hi Dean,
The decals are pretty straight forward to install. My suggestion for the number roundels is this: if you want them on there for good then I could definitely supply you with digital paint mask (as done on my Essex car) but should you want to remove the roundels and numbers then our hi-performance film will work for many, many years - up to you!
Let me know what you are after and I will assist you the best I can - many have been sold so far with happy results (you Cobra guys also!).
Cheers!
P.S. My condolences to Rex and Chicago...

If the white vinyl roundels are put onto the car, can black numbers be changed from time to time and not dammage the roundel?
Can you make a roundel centered in the middle of a sill stripe set like pictured below? I was thinking about a plain un-numbered version and adding numbers as needed.
