Pretty sure they had a white 'mount panarama' and a lighter grey for black cars - black 'mp' for lighter coloured cars and a darker gray.

I'd be interested in getting one too if it's possible?
 
Thanks

Have you got the name and contact details for that print shop to make a new Bathurst sticker ?

The little air bubbles in the sticker I spoke about have disappeared. Happy happy.
 

 
Last week I made some changes to the stickers for Peter and Rick. Dark grey for Rick's silver sw20 and white mount panorama text for Peter's dark green sw20. I printed a couple extra in case anyone else wanted one, just PM me.
 

 
During the week I also bought some new detailing products to test. The goal was to detail it for the David Hack Classic on Sunday. Dodo Juice Lime Prime (Micro-abrasive) and two sample tubs of wax.
 

 
I was surprised how much harder the Lime Prime was to apply compared to the poorboys polish, probably due to the micro-abrasives, the oiliness and applying by hand. However, applying wax was simple and smelled amazing. My day went: Wash -> Claybar -> Polish -> Wax. 8+ hours later... my arms were spaghetti.

More photos from the event are in the QLD forum for anyone interested.

My stickers just arrived. They look fantastic. I cant believe how exact they are. The colours are spot on, the pic from my phone doesn't do it justice. I cant wait to put it on. Thank you so much.

:D! I'm so glad you are happy with it!
 
Also to remove the old sticker I used a hair dryer to soften it and gently worked it off with a plastic scraper while remaining cautious not to scratch the paintwork. Followed up with claybar, polish + wax before applying the new sticker.
 
Boring update: New plastic clips arrived in the mail for me. I was missing a few that held my boot lining in place. 
 

 

 
To be honest I'm not really sure what to do with the car next. The engine bay needs cleaning/tidy up so that could possibly be my next goal.

Where did you get the clips from?

A turbo would be awesome!
 
Rick I bought the clips from an eBay store, 20 clips for $7.00 free postage:

They are identical in size and appearance to the ones on clips and fasteners except without the $14.00 postage fee: http://www.clipsandfasteners.com/Push_Type_Retainers_Clips_Nissan_Toyota_p/pas9114-25.htm
 
However Clips and Fasteners do have a great range: http://www.clipsandfasten...And_Fasteners_s/13.htm
