Funny, I just spent two nights painting the same scheme on an NBS body for Grove.

Not bad. I would have made your 25 in Ernhardt's font, and constrained the blue roof color to the dimensions of the roof rails.

I stilll have to straighten a couple things out on this one before sending it to grove to post in the NBS thread.

If i had the font i would've used it. It's too late now though. Well those are my signature #'s so i put those on there... then put the 3 next to them like on the RCR cars. Yes the paint on the roof is off but the best pic i had showed it there. I was going to make it for NBS good thing i didnt! Thanks for the compliments bover.

Yeah, I had to dig pretty good to find good pics as well.

For your future painting endeavors, You can find the RCR/DEI font at Masgrafx racing in the paintshop/fonts section. It's called MicrogrammaDbolExt.

I got the font to work. But when i try to make my numbers they look absolutely hideous and blocky and i have no clue how to make the font lean etc. Bover if u whipped up some good 1s id be happy to replace the other tex file. The #'s i made disgrace sr more than the hendricks #'s...
