Well since removing the HKS wolf from the side of the Crate, she never looked quite right as her paintwork was quite badly chipped and poorly sprayed around the door handle etc so I've been on mission for quite sometime now to find a new decal for her.  I wanted something different, something that fitted with the Jap origins of the car and something that you wont see everywhere you go. 

So here's my new 185's look, stage by stage, I hope you like it, cos I think it looks bloody amazing!!!!! :o 8) :o 8)

Start (the good side of the car)


Taped up


Easy Bit done


The Proffesionals (note the supervisor  ;) )


Nearly done


All Finished


One Happy me




I know some dont like decal's but her paintwork wasnt good especially on the drviers side, and I cant afford a re-spray, and to be honest I think its so different and so good, I'm over the moon with it  ;D ;D ;D 8) 8) 8) :P :P :P

I actually quite like that Dee 8)
Better than Jools's HKS Wolf ;D anyway ;)

Seriously wanting another GT4 NOW god dam it!!!

Dee

 :D :D You were my biggest worry Gaz as I know your not a decal fan, so YIPEE thats as good as a compliment from Simon Cowl  ;D ;D

Jools actually found that decal for me.  I have been looking for weeks, but didnt just want any old thing, nor something that everyone else has got, and as soon as I saw her I just knew it was perfect! 

Had a phone call already from someone off the OC asking where we got it from etc.  I'm hoping they dont get the same one as me though as I'd die if I turned up at the bubble and someone else has gone and bought it to  ??? :-\ :-[

I just thought she was nice and different, and as you say, much better than the wolf  ;)

i really like that Dee. puts a different edge to the whole 'Jap' theme.
I know what ur saying about keeping it individual, afterall if we wanted the same as any other Tom, Dick and Harry we would have bought Scoobies right?

Nice change, works well on the red :)

Dont want to rain on your parade but didnt Rogue have that on his 4 for JAE last year? maybe Im confusing it with something else????? may have been something completely different on a completely different car though as I see so many!!!

I like it :) It looks really good on the red  8) 8)

Yup... that's neat.
Very obvious but ... neat.
My faff is red but I like to 'blend in' as it is my daily user  (again:) ) sad
Previously a UK WRC ST205 & a CS (UK !*%)
Now.... a 1970 Triumph 13/60 convertible, a Hyindai Amica and a Honda CR-Z Hybrid :)

i was expecting it to be hideous whilst the pics were showing but i kinda like it, it may grow on me

Dee

It is very bold, but I think it goes with the car really well and the more I look at it the more I love it.

Driveby, have no idea about Rogue as we didnt make any meets last year, however I dont really mind if he did, the fact that I went for this is that its not on every car you look at.  I have found with a lot of jap cars that they either have dragons or tribal graphics and though other people will have this I'm sure, I just dont think its as common as the others. 

Paul, I hope it grows more and more on you, I have to say, it looks even better in the flesh  :)
