Post by: Eeyore on October 03, 2007, 11:39:22: Muddymoo isn't seen on the road that often, but Hs website, here (http://friesianracing.wordpress.com/), says more.

Okay, so whilst it may not be entirely original, it's still pretty dang smart! Which is more than good enough for me! 8)

...and fairly eye-catching too.

Post by: Henry Webster on October 03, 2007, 11:45:08: Looking good! :D Welcome to the herd! :lol:

MuddyMoo has been through about 5 iterations of the be-friesianment process. The latest is a proper spray job and it gets better each time I do it.

Bold is best - I started out with quite small patches in Fablon, but they've all grown!

No worries at all. It certainly does attract attention, we're recognised wherever we go now!

Yours looks great! From my experience Fablon lasts really well and is cheap to patch up if you take a tree down the side. Not sure that you really need any suggestions I think it looks great as it is.

Each time I've re-done mine I've made the patches bigger and I think it looks better for it, but I think yours looks, if anything, rather more authentic!

As I say, welcome to the herd.

Post by: tomkbucks on October 03, 2007, 21:31:27: just checked the price and how many rolls i used , was Â£35 in total . really pleased with it, i think the black bits could be bigger bit it was just to hard to get them on without looking wrong if they were to large.... im tempted to put together some instructions and sell them cut out to anyone that maybe interested - not really at a profit just to save people some time and effort ! i found the hardest bit deciding what to put were... if anyone wants some help to create there truck in to one of the heard let me know ! maybe next year at london to brighton we could travel in a pack :)
