questions re: front number boards
 

I know this is a bit subjective, but thought I'd ask anyway.

My 996 has a painted front number board, which imo looks great.
The 998 has a thick stick on front board, supposedly made by DP (says Ducati Performance on it in Gold). I'm less taken by this one.

1) Did DP really make these stick on ones as I can't find them in any of the catalogues ?

2) Which number board do you lot think looks better - painted or stick-on ?

Cheers all,
John.

painted by far the best, cant stand the stick on ones.

AFAIK The painted one will look far better but the stick on one wont chip

DP did not make stick on number boards and the painted variety look the best.

So who paints them?

mick paints them on steve!

what's the price differential?

I've got both - a stick on one on my 'proper' bodywork and one I've painted myself on my trackday fairing.

Horses for courses I reckon - I wouldn't paint one on the standard bodywork cos then it wouldn't be standard, but I admit that they don't look so great close up.

The trackday stuff came in white gel coat, so I've been playing with Halfords spray paint and the photo attached is the result (with the help of a few sponsor stickers too). Should all be finished soon...
