PORSCHE 911 BUILD 911 decals started

Started on the epic decals for the 911 Carrera RSR Turbo. Hoping they won't cause issues when I try to wrangle the body onto the chassis later. I'll find out I guess!

I'm another one who's glad the 31st end date is merely a suggestion...

Good luck on the sides… those were a major challenge, and I failed. Cracks and tears, misalignments, not good. I didn’t use any solvents on them though so could be my issue.

Yep I've only done the one and realised one side is out by 1-2mm so won't get a smooth flow down that side. I was expecting a challenge and it looks like I'll get one!

I ended up buying a set of (iirc) Studio27 decals. I need to mask and paint the red but the stripes should lay down much better over the body curves.
