Designing a quarter panel decal for Turbo'ed tC's-Open to ideas!!!

Hey everybody!

I was bored so I started to design a quarter panel decal for my turboed TC...
Something similar to the Civic SI decal minus DOHC or VTEC...
I went with the traditional TWIN-CAM term used on the old school AE86 and Celicas!!!

Just wanted to some ideas on how what you guys think or maybe I can try different per everyone's request...

I designed the decal in Adobe Illustrator on a Mac. (the perks of being a Graphic Designer)

Let me know what ya'll think!

I think I like it. However, once I go boost I don't think I will de displaying it to everyone. Nice design though.

i doesn't look bad..
just remember if and when you put that on your car.. you will be showing the world what you got... and expect people, to want to race you...
