OK so I signed up for the track day on Oct. 27th (why wouldn't I) and now I need to get the car ready for that and WCC06/ It's going to Rich next week for a look over and the routinue stuff, valve adj., bearings. brakes, etc. I am having new 205/50/15 Aenzies mounted on the Fuchs, and I'm still not sure about the AER wheels yet, the offset looks wrong. Anyway, now I've been assigned numbers by zone 7, ggr, etc. and need to get "gumballs"....so here is the question...do the vinyl numbers stay on well, can they be reused, and if so, how many times...I really don't want to keep the gumballs on...just not my style. Is a mag. gumball better and then do you put vinyl numbers on it or paint , or??? Talk to be OBwans.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

Jim,
Vinyl numbers are a only one time deal. Put them on and they stay on. BUT, you can put vinyl on the flexible magnitic sheets and you can reuse them for years. The numbers have to be big enough for the magnate to get a good hold of the body. And they won't stick to bondo (don't ask me how I know). A meatball that is 16" in diameter with big 8" numbers will stick fine. You have to keep them laid flat when not in use or they will conform to the shape and not stick to the car. Paul |
