Aye you can't change a tattoo of a nova into something else either if you don't like it down the line!

Well you can't get a sport tattoo cos if you get a bit of detail wrong then sportzone will be down on you like a ton o bricks, so go for a mk1 gl then through time you can start a project thread where you maybe stick on GTE bumpers, maybe some sideskirts, or in a drunken stupper stick a delta body kit on it :)

Just think what it will look like in 20 years time.

Like most old/faded tats, shocking.

i think its a cool idea definatly wud have to fit it into a big piece ... might look a bit odd just on its own... good if you could pull it off tho.

if it was me, i would get a tattoo of the new stickers in the cclub shop, of just the out line, because from far away, it does look to obvious and you know what it is. and if you have it under clothing, only you and your missus are gonna think you look stupid :D

do just an outline first then go away and think again, you can always get it covered over if you decide its a bad idea or get it coloured in if you like!

If you've already got a few tattoos and really want this one and don't think you'll regret it, go for it :thumb:
