Looking good but you should stick some orange on the 'V'.
When I toyed with the idea of Gulf colours at the start of the year, I even tried to find some temporary paint to paint the grille with, which could be pressure washed off. Couldn't find anything for love nor money though. 
CocoPops, that coloured grille surround/plinth really finishes it off nicely.
Fair play to you both though, I'd have never had the patience and would have given up at the first bubble or mis-cut piece of vinyl.

Its been my main consideration from the start.
So the car is heavily waxed, and the sticker set is what they call 6month temporary. so it will be interesting to see how much falls off on the way down.
I anything, it provides a good protection from the horrid horrid le Mans dust.
