first ride - 10 yrs old in a 73 911S - Silver - I was done for
Started 'playing' with them in the late 80s
Started racing a 72 911 T built to 2.9L RSR in SoCal SCCA, PCA, POC early 90s
Have owned over 50 long hoods from late 80s until 2000
dropped out from 2000 - 2018 - due to life, work, travel
Been building a 2.8 'RSR' inspired car since 2018 - 9111121235

- The inside of the bottom of the 'U's --- as well as the insides of all the 'B's and 'O's . . . are sharp/chamfered quadrangles . . . not 'D'-shaped or 'rounded-off' in any way
- The arms on the lower-case 'R's and the dots on the 'I's are the same size on their respective letter sets
This should also simplify your artwork --- as well as the printer's task

PS You might wanna consider making some 'clings,' too . . . to stick on the inside of window glass

I'm not sure I one hundred percent agree with you Rick but its really impossible to know for certain... I think you're probably the most invested (emotionally) in this so I'll give you the bulk of your observations... I think this is the best I can do.
One more thing, Rick... how wide do you think the small/more simple version should be? It looks to me to be between 4 and 5 inches.
Next would be to take the revised art and adapt it to the more complex version... Later gator

Hey, Mark . . .
Yeah --- I think this decal is very small . . . maybe ~100 mm wide x ~25 mm tall?
IMO, those proportions are critical
I think the 'Siffert' needs to be a bit more-finely drawn --- it is, after all, the only part that's really readable . . . thinner white + thinner outlines. And those 2nd + 3rd lines are already very thin + highly stylized, anyway --- + severely compacted vertically . . . I doubt they're even legible more than 5 feet away
And I think that may 've been the intent of the decal to begin with --- to discretely show the 'Siffert' . . . then to draw one in for a closer look
Think of the small decal as less an 'advertisement' . . .
. . . and more a 'signature'
.
Sorry Rick... its as good as I can get it.
I think it looks pretty F-ing awesome.
If we can find a better original image... I'd take another go at it.
