Yep, it's squint a bit too much to the left (MG letters are not 90 degrees, which I think they should be - not the rotation but the skew of the letters)

It looks a bit long and flat to me, comparing to other images on google but I probably wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't pointed it out. How did you ask for it? Overall it looks good though. How much was it as I fancy making mine stand out a little (or a lot!)

I think that decal is meant to be at an angle... a bit like this:

I like it, its a one off so why worry if it doesnt look quite like any others.

You have more room to add other stickers on the back door if you leave it like it is.

Dont think there is a right or wrong look, just how many stickers you wont to put on.

Every one is going to have their own idea for whats best, its your baby Smokey, so go with what you want.

Yeap, I think you're right about this.

The one on the windscreen is different, it is meant to be horizontal, hence the MG letters aren't squint.

Instead of adding more of a horizontal line to the left to cover the length of the car, the guy who printed this had stretched the entire decal horizontally...
