Meatballs, Rondels, help
 
I bought an SPF a couple of months ago. I love the look of cars with the circular race numbers, called Meatballs or Rondels, plus the race car signs or decals like Castrol, Quaker State, etc. My family says this is tacky. I disagree. On this issue, family is wrong, and I am right. So, help me on how to do this. Does static cling vinyl work, or does it need to be permanent. Finish Line Accessories has the meatballs, but I can't find the other race car signage. Where to go? How can I tatoo my car? Larry Carlson

Here is my B&B

Mbeers6, the B&B is flat out gorgeous. I ordered the static cling vinyl Rondels/Meatballs and decals from Finish Line Accessories over the weekend. If those don't work well, I will go to Raceline Digital or Squier Design as suggested by your post and a few of the other helpful posts above. Hope my SPF looks as good as your B&B when she gets all tarted up here in a few days. Larry Carlson

Having spend a couple of weeks on this, researching, talking to people, ordering and receiving samples, here is where I ended up. For vintage decals, Finish Line Accessories seems to be the best choice. Anyone else will simply have to recreate what Finish Line already has in stock. For the meatballs or rondelles, I ended up with Mike and Rita Squier at Squier Design, http://squierdesign.com/. Finish Line offers meatballs, but only in one size, white meatball, black number, one font, only choice is what number. Raceline Digital offers five Cobra packages, but within a given package, everything is set, as best I can tell with no choice even as to number. With Squier Design, you choose meatball size, color, what number, number font and color, trim ring or not, adhesive or static cling. Mike and Rita can also create an adhesive or static cling decal from any image you provide or that can be found on the net. Mike took my order over the phone on a holiday (Monday, July 5), shipped the next day.

Here is Little Cobra tattooed, tarted up, and pimped out:

D56, you might not have looked around on Raceline Digital. There is more there than the Cobra packages. Try starting at the index:

Lovehamr, you are right. Although the Cobra kits appear to be fixed, Raceline does offer some font choices on the Race Nos. tab, and they have vintage (sponsorship) decals and some other items. I actually ordered one of their Cobra kits before ending up with Mike Squier. If anyone wants it, send me a PM. It's yours for shipping.

I want to know where CobraDan got his rig dressed!

That Roadster picture came from the Father's day LA Roadster show.
