I am at the stage now where I am starting to begin some of the lettering on the hood, the stars, etc.
I have made stencils using the correct font, and done the small stuff like the dash, tire pressure and fuel tank stuff. When I got to the hood however, I ran into several questions:
Does anyone know the actual font size for the registration numbers along the side of the hood? The only sources I can find list either 2 or 4 inches. 4 is way too big and 2 looks as if it will be too small. According to some pics I have seen it appears that they are 2.5 inches or so high, judged from the hood crease up.
Second, does anyone know how to keep stencils laying flat on a curved surface like the hood sides? I want to paint my letters on, not use vinyl, so its a bit trickier, but wondered if anyone had any ideas?
