I purchased Shirley Maclane last year and have been working on getting her ready for this year. Heres a couple of photos of the new paint and number.

Congrats - but I can GUARANTEE YOU that T&S will
NOT like that number against those colors. You need to do a bit of 'consistent color contrast' for your number (try working T&S as a taper some weekend! Try to read that number as it goes by at 100 MPH and 300 yards distance ... (and you must be at least 50 years old ...)
).

I knew as soon as I put the number on the side of the car it would not work.
I'm going to try keeping the white and add a thick black outline should look like this picture. Making the change will be easy, it helps having a brother with a sign making business.

I had the same problem. The numbers looked great on the dining room table, but when out in the sun/daylight it was another matter. Yes, adding the thin strip makes all the difference. Looks great!
