Formula 355 decals

I did a search on this subject but nothing came up that i was looking for. I got a 89 formula 350. Im in the process of having a 355 installed in it. I was wondering if anyone ever saw, or even thought of putting Formula 355 on the door replacing the Formula 350. It seemed like a pretty neat and unique mod to the outside.

Just buy a decal kit for it, and take off the 0 (zero) and replace it with the 5 on each side so it would still have that factory look to it.

Well let me know your guys suggestions on this idea.

although a little overkill, the best way to do it and have everything look the same would be to buy 2 decal kits, and basically throw out the 0 from the first one, and use the extra 5s from the other one. Yea its gonna cost you double, but it might be the only way to get another set of 5's that would look factory.

i always liked the idea of having it painted on, but it's not like i have the money for that kind of customization. i can't afford to even get my car running
