note to others don't follow the 3 inch space for the fender decals it does not look right at all in my eyes i did mine and then i googled it and other people say don't follow it too.
i have ordered 2 new ones from yearone for the fenders as i want it to look right. they will be centered next time

Yeah got it thank you . The fender one is wrong not your fault terry

just does not look right like the drawing states maybe with the German style lettering it would work but would not be right with yours or the looping style lettering I will centre up next time on the fender.

I spent ages after on google images and not many the same lol. But none like the 3 inch gap as the drawing shows

. Yours would not fit on if you went to that guide
