This sounds so very benign but it seems important...

Does anyone know the offset of the numbers on the 312B, 312T, 312T4 and 312T5? If you don't know what I mean, then...

If I draw a straight line down the center of the car, what desgree offset is the number on the top of the car? Is it 45 degrees? 40? Seems like 45 would be a good number but who knows about those crazy Italians...

I want to get it correct.

Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana!

I use the "TLAR" method when it comes to applying decals at angles. No one has ever told me it was wrong either.
