serious??...guess your car is black?
i just ordered the one from ebay...same from new zealand or something like that,..looks good.

i know the current s40 btcc cars have the white background w/ blue letters.
850s back in the day had the blue back and white letters on a white car..well...mostly white under the rest of the decals and stuff.

You could do white background with blue letters (like in '95) or blue background with white letters ('94+'96 seasons). I like the blue background with white letters. As long as your car has the speed to back up putting a racing sticker on the windshield, I'm ok with it. I'm actually thinking of getting the blue sticker with white letters for my car too smile.gif

Is there a good place to get the stickers from? I'm wary of buying one from an eBay seller with whom I am not familiar.

Oh, and use the white car as a donor and get thos Konis and H&Rs onto the T-5R! smile.gif

I've got a guy locally that does stickers for a living so we'll see what he can come up with.
