Don't do it, it's a crime to mess up a nice white BA like that.

an eagle would be mad on the bonnet!!!LOL

But if u do the sides like the ford it may look better,not common on other models or is it just the new fords that have it never really noticed

why don't you be unique and give your car some of that funky dazzle camouflage... then you can cause havoc on the road. and look like a bint.

Do what you feel is right for your own car. If you like it, go ahead. your own enjoyment is better than pleasing everyone on the street.

Ever thought of diagonal stripes across the car... now that is somewhat slightly different to everyone else. I think whatever you choose will be good. At least you'll be different to the next White BA that drives past. Are you definately thinking black stripes? Why not colour?

like a sky blue or something

the idea behind that camouflage is so they cant recognis the sides of the ship.
as in the bow from the sides. if u look at it from a distance it looks like there's multiple hulls.

if u cant tell which is the side its hard to hit it side on with a torpedo
