  • Number 1 or Number 3 in my opinion...either pick out the red you have already or contrast your white paint with a black sunstrip!

    • I agree with Jez - 1 or 3, but as I know you are a real perfectionist and like things central, I reckon you will be happier with the style and lettering position of number 1 or 2. Decisions decisions mate!!

        • This is what a smaller 2 looks like 😊



          The black just blends into the window/pillars etc.

          White would be a good contrast.

            Agreed and with your black roof too - the contrast would be even better. Shame you can't get black background, white lettering with a red piping outline to the letters and chevrons. That would tick all your boxes then I reckon.

            • Cheers for the feedback guys, might look at white with red lettering now. I've discounted number 3 already, leaning towards number 1 as it will be easier to fit around the light/rain sensor on the rear view mirror.

                • I'm not too tall and sit as low as the seat goes so I have quite a lot of vertical visibility currently. Would trim the sunstrip to fit anyway.

                  I like what you've done with yours, plus the yellow seats are ace

                    • by the way, you know you can get driving sunglasses right? just put your prescription into a pair of sunglasses (https://www.glassesdirect.co.uk/pres...lasses-online/ for example)

                      not a massive fan of sunstrips at all tbh, but i reckon number 2 looks nicest

                        Yeah there is that I guess but I only have 1 set of lenses right now so I'd need a new set to put in those and then you're looking at a lot more than a tenner :/

                            • Finally decided on design 1 with black background, red lettering.

                              Decided I would have too much "Citroen Racing" going on with my front corner stickers and not enough performance to back it up
                              Also after thinking about a white background and various Paint edits, I concluded that I actually do want it to blend with the roof so black it is.

                              Aerial should be delivered soon; that can get fitted right away but the sticker will have to wait for some clearer weather, or I can try cram the car in our tiny garage to keep it dry.

                                That's fine tried that but forever swapping glasses as the sun comes & goes with the Great British weather lol
