| Bonnet lettering Template |
|
I have just had the bonnet of my D4 repaired and fully resprayed, by a reputable body shop but while most pleased with the spay job/finish the letters - LAND ROVER - are not level and poorly spaced! While I have reported my concern to them and agreed to take the car back , I was just wondering if there was such a thing as a template they should of used and I can make reference to with some degree of confidence?
Any thoughts or comments would be most appreciated.

The bodyshop guys I worked with always used to take a rubbing off the decalls before they removed them as a reference for refit and used that as a template, you say by a reputable body shop but it sounds a bit of shoddy workmenship if they let the car go with the problem you report.?
