I personally don't like stickers all over the place, but it doesn't look bad, looked better without them, but still looks good now.......

The birds are a bit high, but they look fine.

Everyone else is on the crack....the decals look MUCH better!!!

I think the birds are too high too. Maybe i'll remove them and replace them in the right spot.
Thanks for the opionions. Im going to keep the decals on because now it looks like it did from the factory and will make a good sleeper as for appearence.

My old 87:



And what happened to it after my friend rear-ended a semi @ 70mph on I95...that was a fun flight and subsequent landing.
