So I have another quick question. We're going to replace the club joker decals on the front doors, the ones that came off were silver (and were quite hard to see against the silver paintwork). Should I replace with silver again or one of these other darker greys (but not original colour options)?

Gonna just put the Club Joker decal back on the front doors once everything's hardened.

Yep, good move. Having said "no stickers" earlier, I now freely admit I was wrong. It needs something.
