I've got a pair of white John Cooper signature decals. I know black bonnet stripes are one place they can go but I'd get white bonnet stripes if I was getting any and I don't like white bonnet stripes on IndiBlue so I'm not getting those either (love black stripes on PS/black and PW/black but I'm a dark blue car kind of guy).

So, the question is, where else do people think they'd look good? I'm thinking of either one on each door, kind of under each mirror nearer the bottom; or perhaps one on the front bumper somewhere and one on the rear hatch or rear bumper. Any other ideas???

How about just in front of rear wheelarch just above the black sideskirt. I have seem them there and they look pretty good.

Not sure about the front bumper though?

Thanks for the idea. Certainly different than putting them on the doors. I agree that they may appear a bit daft on the front bumper and with two of them the only way to get symmetry is to put them on the sides.

Anyone got pics of cars done up like that?

I'm also getting Indi Blue... I think this would look AWESOME on her!

The chrome ones look very nice, pricey though compared to the decals. I'll post pics after I apply my decals.

Here we go, AV51HCC put the image online as I did it for him (he wanted something to put there and I'd already thought of doing this) I'd love two of those Chrome John Cooper Badges to put there.

How did I miss that other thread??? Thanks for the link, great images there. Front quarterpanel beneath the side marker looks good too!

Have you made a decision on where to put your John Cooper signature decals? I ordered a set of white and a set of black signatures. I really link the placement just in front of the rear wheel flairings.

HarryHBMCC · Oct 12th, 2002, 09:59 AM

Yeah, that's where I'm putting mine too. Still haven't done it though as I want to be sure that's where I want them. I can always take them off if I don't like it but then I have to buy more. I think I'm going to put them on soon.

paddy · Oct 13th, 2002, 11:47 AM

what color are you putting on , black or white? White to match/compliment the roof or black to match/compliment the wheel flairings????

HarryHBMCC · Oct 13th, 2002, 01:06 PM

White, I suppose to match the roof&mirrors and contrast with the black trim.

I'm trying to get some custom bonnet stripes made and need to know the dimensions of the JC signature decal. Also for those of you who put the decal on the bonnet stripe how far from the back edge did you put it?
Thanks
